Product Description
Opening in 1936, the Zion Covenant series tells the courageous and compelling stories of those who risk everything to stand against the growing tide of Nazi terrorism that is sweeping through central Europe under the dangerous and deceitful guise of Hitlers Third Reich. A new study guide is included in each book. DISCOVER THE TRUTH THROUGH FICTION Who will dare to take a stand? In May 1938 Hitlers forces continue to swallow pieces of Europe, forcing Jews to flee from his ever-tightening net. Yet where can they go? While nations argue politics and negotiate payments, and British prime minister Neville Chamberlain accepts Hitlers signature of peace in our time, homeless Jews bob on the open sea in coffin ships. After suffering through internment at Dachau and a hellish fire, Shimon Feldstein, former percussionist with the Vienna Philharmonic Orchestra, becomes a stowaway on the SS Darien, one of the battered refugee ships. His wife, Leah, a talented cellist, undertakes a treacherous journey over the Alps to save herself and a little boy. But it seems all the harbors of the world are slammed shut against the Darien. Where can they find a place to call home? ALSO INCLUDED: Study guides suitable for individual use or group discussion.

From AudioFile
MUNICH SIGNATURE, third in the Zion Covenant series, pitsyoung Elisa against Hitler's Third Reich. Elisa has the potential todestroy Hitler's power, yet it may cost her life. The Holocaust anddeath camps are grimly portrayed by narrator Amieé Lilly, withscenes of torture minus explicit details. Lilly portrays Jewish andGerman characters with skill and finesse. International intrigue, war,refugees unwanted by any country, and despair parallel the truth ofwhat led to WWII, giving the listener a Jewish perspective. This isone audio of a well-done series that only whets the listener'sappetite for more. G.D.W. © AudioFile 2003, Portland, Maine-- Copyright © AudioFile, Portland, Maine
