excellent book and series

I have to say I hesitated a minute before ordering these books since I think they were categorized a “Christian fiction.” I am not overly religious and worried about being preached at. Yes, there kind of a lot of biblical references and things of that nature but it didn’t distract me in any way from the great stories. It was no more distracting and in fact was actually easier to take than some of the gratuitous sex scenes in some other books!

All that aside I was highly satisfied with the storytelling and character development in all 3 books. I was interested and invested right to the very end. I loved all of them and could cheerfully have read more and more and more!

I enjoyed this sequel book

I like follow up stories and the chance to learn more about the history of our nation . Having scripture in the story line is always a blessing . God expects us to love our neighbor as ourself … So why do we not ? If we don’t learn from History we are doomed to repeat it

This was a good read. It is the last book of the Ohio River Valley Series. It was a good ending to the series.

I liked this one a good bit more since the writing style was better but in all the whole series could have been better with edits. The way it is I skimmed half of each book due to it getting boring but I did enjoy it.

Keeps your attention with gritty details

This is a great series. Lots of good historical details that are woven in and amongst the story. It really keeps your attention all the way through the third book.

I loved this series, but I may be a little biased; I didn’t pick up on the fact that this story takes place in southern
In. But when I read that because of slave hunters the slaves the family was trying to transport with the Underground Railroad were being sent to the Lindley’s a Quaker family in NC I had to read it again….my ancestors, the Lindley’s were Quaker’s in NC! And in book 3, Jonathan Lindley brought freed slaves to In where they settled in Paddy’s Garden. I have an extensive family history, the Lindley’s were from Alamance Co where they operated the Lindley Mill and Jonathan Lindley is listed as a Quaker who was a part of the Underground Railroad. How unexpected to read about my ancestors in a fiction book!
