Dan Strawn is the author of Isaac's Gun, Body of Work, and Breakfast at Blair's, Lame Bird's Legacy, and Black Wolf's Return. I am truly honored that he posted this review for Rise to Power:
4.0 out of 5 stars A good read, February 26, 2014By Dan Strawn - See all my reviewsAmazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)This review is from: Rise to Power (The David Chronicles) (Kindle Edition)
Who is this David? This King of the Jews? Did he really have God in his corner? Was he His instrument, one He used to set up a royal lineage? The one some say Emmanuel would spring from? Or was he a mere visionary, in love with himself, using his multiple talents to sway the masses for his own purpose: absolute power?
Uvi Poznansky raises these conflicted possibilities, takes her readers to the brink of enlightenment, then fades away, leaving them to ferret their own versions of the way things were.
What results is great reading that mixes pathos, heroism, and tragedy while delving into the motives of this mere man who would become king, hero, legend … inspiration for the master artists of future millennia.
Huzzahs to Uvi!
I'll purchase the sequel
