Relation During Books The Wood's Edge (The Pathfinders #1)

At the wood's edge cultures collide. Can two families survive the impact?

The 1757 New York frontier is home to the Oneida tribe and to British colonists, yet their feet rarely walk the same paths.

On the day Fort William Henry falls, Major Reginald Aubrey is beside himself with grief. His son, born that day, has died in the arms of his sleeping wife. When Reginald comes across an Oneida mother with newborn twins, one white, one brown, he makes a choice that will haunt the lives of all involved. He steals the white baby and leaves his own child behind. Reginald's wife and foundling daughter, Anna, never suspect the truth about the boy they call William, but Reginald is wracked by regret that only intensifies with time, as his secret spreads its devastating ripples.

When the long buried truth comes to light, can an unlikely friendship forged at the wood's edge provide a way forward? For a father tormented by fear of judgment, another by lust for vengeance. For a mother still grieving her lost child. For a brother who feels his twin's absence, another unaware of his twin's existence. And for Anna, who loves them both--Two Hawks, the mysterious Oneida boy she meets in secret, and William, her brother. As paths long divided collide, how will God direct the feet of those who follow Him?

When I know I'm going to write a review of a book I tend to start thinking what I might say at about the two thirds point in the story. I didn't do that with The Wood's Edge. I didn't think about the amazing historic detail, I didn't think about the excellent writing, I didn't think about all the witty things I could say in praise of the story. I just READ the next page. I was captivated and engaged so fully that I forgot about the mechanics of the writing. I just read another sentence and then

{3.5 stars}I had barely begun Many Sparrows by this same author, when I knew I would have to snatch up the rest of her books. I've always longed for books that would whirl me into a descriptive world, and hold my attention on every page. Lori Benton does just that for me.This book was a whirlwind! It spans many years, bringing together the lives of family and strangers in a unique way. The first half was long and slow, and sometimes the months and years passed in between got a little tedious,

I loved this book and I don't mind one bit that there was a cliff hanger at the end because there is another book to read, how exciting! Within this book contains so much wisdom and lessons learned. I can't wait to read the next one in the series.

Talk about a book hangover! I was completely captivated by "The Wood's Edge" from the very first page, as the story wove an epic and intricate tapestry of love, despair, recrimination, vengeance, condemnation, faith, hope, and forgiveness that here, as I close the back cover, has left me smiling and weeping and breathless for more. Heart-pounding romance... haunting, lyrical prose... riveting, realistic characters... all wrapped up in one of the most spiritually-challenging novels I have ever

What an amazing saga, and I'm so glad I'm only halfway through it since this is the first in a two-book series! Lori Benton's ability really shines in this novel (as it does with all her others). I was so impressed with how she was able to span from the end of the French and Indian War to the beginning of the Revolutionary War by following the twisting tales of two families tied together by one impulsive act. Never did the book feel rushed. There were several POV characters, and she nailed the

Beautiful Writing - CheckCompelling Storyline - CheckHistorical Detail - CheckI could not ask for more. This was a phenomenal novel and as good or perhaps better than Burning Sky, Lori's debut release.I anxiously await the continuation of this story in The Flight of Arrows.
