Summary
Summary
When King Hezekiah discovers that God's Law forbids him to take multiple wives, he must choose one woman to love. He must also choose to trust God's promises when he decides to rebel against his powerful Assyrian overlords. Hezekiah seeks to strengthen his nation's fortifications by building a tunnel in Jerusalem to hide his water supply. The tension mounts as the Assyrians march closer--and Hezekiah's tunnel remains incomplete.With his officials advising him to submit to the Assyrians, Hezekiah's faith is once more severely tested.

Library Journal Review
Austin's rewritten and repackaged "Chronicle of the Kings" series continues the story of Hezekiah (716-687 B.C.E.), King of Judah, first begun in Gods and Kings. Hezekiah is determined to return to the God of his forefathers, but this requires him to give up his concubines and to choose only one wife. The king also must learn to trust Yahweh over his advisers as he faces the cruel Assyrians, who have wreaked havoc in the northern kingdom of Israel and who are moving southward to Judah. Three-time Christy Award winner Austin (Fire by Night, Candle in the Darkness and Hidden Places) tells a compelling, multilayered story with richly drawn, believable characters who will engage readers' sympathies. Highly recommended for all collections. Austin (www.lynnaustin.org) lives near Chicago. (c) Copyright 2010. Library Journals LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary of Media Source, Inc.
