My Book Beginning?
From THE PROPHETESS :Deborah's Storyby Jill Eileen Smith
"When new gods were chosen,
then war was in the gates.
Deborah, poet, prophetess,
and judge in Israel"
I was sure not to miss this new fictional account.
The book beginning sets the background
Now what will I come to know about Deborah as daughter, wife, and mother, along with public roles as poet,

I'm not familiar with the author, but that has a good hook.

Sounds interesting. I enjoy historical fiction, and this sounds like a good story.
My Friday post features A NEW DAWN IN DEER ISLE.
This is on my TBR list. I love Historical Fiction from this time period. Enjoy!
Sounds interesting! I always enjoy a good historical fiction.
I like the beginning and think the cover is stunning in a "Girl with the Pearl Earring" type of way - definitely adding this to my tbr because like you the only thing I know about Deborah is what I've read in the bible and I'd like to know more. Here's my Friday meme
What a beautiful and captivating cover! Really want to send this book to my Godmother, whose name is Deborah and has worked in my life as both prophetess and poet.
A lovely tribute to your Godmother and appropriate gift. I totally agree on the striking cover! I'd love to hear her reaction to your thoughtful gift...
Thanks so much for taking time to visit and respond, Sibella. I'm honoured!
