By the Light of the Moon: Silver Moon (Paperback)

I'm a big fan of historical fiction but I haven't read a lot of books centered around World War I. As I read this book, it was very evident that a lot of research had been done by the author and I was very impressed with the detailed information that Jenny Knipfer includes in this story that covers the years 1914-1923. Silver Moon might be considered an epic story, with many characters and numerous events included in the 400 pages, but it is written in a manner that makes you want to keep reading. I was completely immersed in the accounts of the men at war and I could easily imagine the fear and anxiety of the women left behind in Canada. Some of the story is told through letters shared between these men and women and their correspondence makes the varying emotions and events seem even more real! Silver Moon reminds us of the tragedy of war but Knipfer also shows the beauty that can occur when hope, faith, and forgiveness are present. This is the third book in the By the Light of the Moon series but my enjoyment wasn't affected because I haven't read the first two. If you are looking for historical Christian fiction that leaves you wanting to learn more, you will want to read Silver Moon. I received a copy of this book from the author via Prism Book Tours. I wasn't required to write a favorable review and these are my own opinions.
