In Jerusalem Vigil, Book One of The Zion Legacy series, Bodie and Brock Thoene transfixed the readers of their blockbuster Zion Chronicles and Zion Covenant series and captured a host of new ones. Their dazzling new novel continues the story of the world's most sacred city at its momentous turning point.

Thunder from Jerusalem opens on May 19, 1948. The state of Israel is five days old, and--under attack from all points of the compass--its life hangs by a thread. After months of privation the siege of Jerusalem's Old City is lifted as patriot soldiers break through Zion Gate. But it is only the beginning of a long battle, as harrowing as it is glorious, for this ancient enclave. There unfolds a tale of heroism and tragedy, of romance, pathos, and triumph. Thunder from Jerusalem is unforgettable in its timely blend of superb storytelling, historical authenticity, and spiritual adventure.
