Even when a fiction series is complete, I usually mix up my reading with books by different authors rather than read two books from the same series back to back. I made an exception with this book, jumping right into it after I finished the one before it.

This historical fiction novel, fourth in the Heirs of Anton family saga, can technically be read as a standalone. And it's where I would have ended this ChristFic series if I'd either started at the beginning or if Book Three hadn't enthralled me the way it did and left me with questions I'm assuming are answered in Book One—since this is a series that gradually goes backward in history rather than forward.

So. After reading Books Two through Four, yeah. I'll be going back—but forward in time—to finish the saga with the first novel.

My goodness. This has been a lot so far. A good lot for my soul.

Considering what's revealed about the past in the two books before this one, I was amazed to find the surprises this novel still held for me. In particular, two major ones at critical parts of the story.

Pretty genius plotting on the authors' part, if you ask me.

Now, the writing is a little repetitive at times, including where it's apparently meant to drive home one of the big plot twists. On a different note, after the nature of suspense and spy/wartime action in the previous two novels, this read was a slower one for me for much of the first third or so. Also unlike in the previous two books, the key love story in this one doesn't really get going until around halfway through the novel.

Nevertheless, the substance overall, the richness of the family story that carries over into future generations... It's indeed a good lot.

So good that, instead of taking a break with a book by a different author, I'm going to go right ahead and finish this series first. ( )

Susan K Downs: God sets the lonely in families. Psalm 68:6 NIV
To my nephews and niece, Robbie and Ryan Rohr and Barrett and Grace Guynn, who started out life as Sergei and Dimitry, Alexander and Natalia. I thank God for His magnificent providence, which brought each one of you from such faraway places as the village of Pechory, in the Russion province of Pskov, and grafted you into our family tree. Though you are as American as they come now, never forget your roots. When you are old enough to read The Sovereign's Daughter, I hope it instills a sense of pride in your heritage and inspires you to learn all you can about your birth country.
And to my mother, Betty Classen Watson Williams, who from my earliest memories relayed our Classen family history through pictures, heirlooms, and personal accounts. Thanks, Mom, for piquing my curiosity about the pioneer adventures of the real-life Anton---the namesake for this story's hero. More important than an appreciation for my ancestral roots, you showed me the way to the Father and introduced me to the Son. I'm forever grateful. No one could ask for a richer legacy!
Susan May Warren: For your glory, Lord.
