A magnificent historical novel of the momentous events that unfold in the days after the British departure from Jerusalem, on May 14, 1948, when they hand over the key to Zion Gate and depart. They will leave Jewish and Muslim forces that have been fighting for months over control of a holy city they are all willing to die for. Good reading.

I read this series a few years ago, and am now ordering them for my personal collection. The entire series provides amazing insite into the Jewish people - their most recent history. It is well written, historically accurate, and keeps you on the edge of your seat. I do not recommend as bed time reading if you want to go to sleep. Excellent. A must read.
