Standing at the center of this conflict is the prophet Isaiah, who seeks to offer both political and spiritual guidance to the young ruler and his father.

Fabulous book! I enjoyed diving deeper into a timeline/history that I know but haven’t really delved into deeply. Also, the character development was SO good! Super enjoyed and can’t wait for the next one!
