Joshua: Conqueror (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781937623203)

Ten-year old Boaz has a gift. He has instincts and moves of a master warrior, which very quickly get him a lot of attention. The problem is that it's the attention of both the prince of his tribe, Caleb, and the leader of all the tribes of Israel, Joshua, exactly as they start the campaign of conquest of the land of Canaan. Young Boaz gets pulled into the middle of the fighting as his nation of escaped slaves plows its way through a land filled with enemies. Boaz gets swept up in both the miracles that Joshua calls upon as well as in the training Caleb gives him to grow and expand his special abilities. Boaz learns to use Isaac's Sight to peer into his enemy's spirit and Naftali's Speed to dash around opponents. He crosses the miraculously parted Jordan River, scurries through the falling walls of Jericho and gets Joshua to stop the sun as he uses his own powers and battles enemies throughout the land of Canaan. But there is one enemy that is not impressed by the young Israelite's achievements. Deadly Akavish of Philistine vows to kill the upstart Boaz and put a stop to the inexorable advance of the tribes of Israel. While remaining true to the Biblical text, this first installment of the Warrior Prophets series, Joshua: Conqueror brings a Tolkien-like view of the Biblical tales mixed with fantasy and adventure, as our young hero discovers himself and his place in the turbulent era of magic, miracles and conquest.
