Everyone he loves is about to be annihilated.
When Danel is suddenly orphaned, his childhood dream of becoming a warrior is lost in the relentless grind of running the family bakery. To make matters worse, his grandfather's mind has fled and he keeps disturbing the peace with prophecies of doom. Prophecies that seem destined to come true when a vast army encamps on the borders of their lands. Who are these people and why does their god command them to wipe out everyone in Canaan?
The men of Danel's city are proud of their fighting ability but it soon becomes clear that no battle can succeed against the god who conquered Pharaoh's armies. Seeking reassurance, Danel turns to a famous fortune teller but she only confirms the terrifying future of his grandfather's vision. Yet Danel can't just give up and accept his fate.
But what can a mere baker do to save his family, his city, and his people?
Another great book in this Biblical fiction series by Christine Dillon! Focusing on the nations that Abraham and his descendants came into contact with, this series follows the little-known people groups who came to know the God of Abraham through His people. This book focuses on the group that most of us know as the Gibeonites – the people who used deceit to garner a peace treaty with the Israelites under Joshua.

Another amazing retelling of a Bible story! This book has less of a time jump than the second one. It begins about 40 years after Plagues and Papyrus. You see some familiar characters in it as well, which is fun! I really enjoyed the perspective of a Hivite watching everything come to pass with Jericho and the other various battles.
