Hittite Warrior
Hittite Warrior recognizes that Judea has always been the crossroads and battlefield of contending nations. This remains true more than ever in this biblical time of Barak and Deborah!
When invading Greeks destroy Uriah Tarhund’s Hititte home, his dying father tells him to go south to seek a Canaanite named Sisera. “He will help you. For my sake.”
Uriah plunges into the tumult of an uneasy Judea. When he saves a young boy from being sacrificed to the pagan god Moloch, the Hebrews give him succor for a time. Later, he finds Sisera and joins him in war against these same people. When the Hebrews defeat the Canaanites, the young Hittite comes to a peace with himself, the Hebrew people and their God.
This meticulously researched novel takes place in the time of Judges, and incorporates Biblical facts with a gripping story, set against the wide background of ancient civilizations.
- While this novel includes violence befitting the time period, it does not go into a graphic amount of detail and does bring an important period in the Hebrew people’s history to life.
