Commentary Concering Books Munich Signature (Zion Covenant #3)
I'm working through this series for the second/third time. This book focuses on the fall of Czechoslovakia to the Nazis. It also documents the plight of a ship containing Jewish refugees as the boat is passed from country to country, each lamenting the suffering of the people but refusing to accept the additional immigrants themselves. Still enjoying this series although it can be slow at times and perhaps some of the detail is unnecessary as it makes the books very long. The history is fascinating and accurate as I recall it from my studies at school! The books bring the horror and terror home in a way that studying facts and figures is unlikely to do. There were a few scenes that had graphic violence and a few with sexual innuendo. The language in these books tends to be clean with the odd word that some might find offensive. This book has more Christian content than the previous ones and even explains the Gospel message in one place. I recommend this series and will be reading the rest of the books.Rating Appertaining To Books Munich Signature (Zion Covenant #3)

This story was a bit of a slow read and a lot of sad choices were made among the leaders. The story shows how easy people can be deceived and not honor the oath they made with others. Im grateful to understand better how WW2 started to grow from there and hopefully remember to recognize patterns of a war coming.The historical content of this book is so important. We need to be reminded of the treatment of Jewish refugees because it's relevant today. And it's something we don't hear much about in history classes.However, the writing style still gets on my nerves! Pet phrases reused ad nauseum, over-the-top emotionalism, clichéd characterization, explaining what characters say and do as if the reader isn't smart enough, etc.
interesting
This was a very intense read, with some very believable, realistic, characters. Unfortunately, I was very disappointed with the ending. It had a rushed, "let's get this book overwith" kind of feel to it. The ending would have provided a wonderful opportunity for some great reunions -- Charles with Louis, Murphy with Elisa, and Shimon with Leah, but all we get are a few lines about them at some kind of remembrance ceremony, and it's all VERY somber. Even though the sinking of the Darien was a
Once more I was held captive by this book. Elisa and the struggle of the Jewish people is clearly portrayed in this book. Though it is fiction, often I forgot this as I read as I recognized many of the key events from the Holocost we incorporated into this book. Brock and Bodie Thoene showed us the great struggle as the few tried to raise the alarm to Hilter's dark nature. Murphy was an unforgettable character as he tried to get American's to open their eyes to the suffering and horror of the
This was amazing! Elisa and Murphy are married and happy. But, when Hitler becomes a threat to their home, Murphy sends Elisa away on a ship with a little boy named Charles. Charles is unable to speak because his mouth is sewn. I find this sad that Charles can't speak. I hope things turn out good in the next book.
When I was a teen, a young man told me about his parents being on a ship and traveling from country to country. Everyone turned them away and they were finally made wards of the United Nations. Some of the events in Munich Signature could have been their story. His parents too were fleeing from Nazi controlled territories. The book is part of the Zion Covenant series of historical fiction covering WWII. Munich Signature relates events in the European Theatre in the late 1930's as Hitler expanded
