Relation In Favor Of Books Danzig Passage (Zion Covenant #5)
The best way to summarize the heart of this book can be found in the book as quoted by Winston Churchill, "NEVER GIVE INTO FEAR, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER GIVE IN". When all around you are succumbing to evil, there will always be at least one person who keeps his head about him and stays the course of righteousness and what is morally right.I really love the story-line to this book and all of the Character developments and how each handled the trials and tribulations that they had to endure and overcome.
It is WWII Austria/Germany, It is the Night of the broken Glass, A National Staged program by the NAZI Propaganda machine against the Jewish Community. Jewish owned Shops were broken into and looted, Jews beaten up and removed from their homes, and some taken to Concentration and work camps. It is the night where evil has taken over and caused destruction and death.
Story one, there is Lucy a beautiful Aryan who is pregnant and madly in love with a Major in the SS, who she has found out that is married and who is planning on sending the baby to his wife to raise. and now she wants to leave. story two, you have the ordeals of a Preacher who is arrested while trying help a Jewish Family from his congregation leave their apartment before the storm troopers arrive and what ultimately happens to his family. There is a lot more going on. This is riveting and sad and intense book that hits the heart strings and leaves you wanting more.

One day I will write a longer review of these books, this series. They are wonderful on so many levels. I highly recommend the series to anyone who wants to learn more about the lead-up to WWII and the war itself. It is not a "war" book, but more about lives and people and how they were affected. Very well written and researched.A number of new characters introduced here. Otto is back from the first two books and helps with one group. The other group is a bunch of teens/children connected to the Lindheims, who also show up in this book, but they are not the main focus. The "odd duck" out here is Lucy, a Bavarian woman used in the Aryan breeding program. The tagline on the front says "For those who desperately cling to the tiniest glimmer of hope, even the last illusions are being extinguished...." - the illusions of the
Danzig will always be one of my favourites, mostly because I could relate to Lori when I first read it.I enjoy that, unlike most Christian WWII novels, the Thoenes touch on other groups of people targetted by the Nazis & not just the Jews - in Danzig it is the Christians, the disabled & the children of prisoners, but are also able to continue the Murphey's & the Jerusalem stories.
Not to be missed
I loved this installment of the series. It dealt a lot with children escaping the Nazi regime, and how families were torn apart by Hitler. I truly love how much these books have opened my eyes to so many things that took place leading up to World War II. There were so many people that closed their hearts and minds to the things going on, but thank goodness there were the few who helped, even if it signed their own death warrant. Another great read!
The series continues with new characters being introduced and new story lines developed. Some of the books merge well together but with others it feels as if is a completely new story. In general, the series is still worth reading especially when in the mood for something easy...
This book was much better than the previous book for sure. I was disappointed that Leah and Shimon were not involved in this as the previous books though. Im glad that Leah was mentioned and so was your family. I didnt joy the fact that Alfie, a child with special needs, what is involved in the plot. It seems like he may have had autism? Anyways, I really also enjoyed how Bodie Thoene used a lot of Scripture in the book. What fascinated me was the part when Bodie had Pastor Ibsen specific
