Publisher's summary

Katie Stuckey and Jonas Weaver are both romantics. Seventeen-year-old Katie is starry-eyed, in love with the idea of being in love, and does not want to wait to marry Jonas until she is 18, despite her parents' insistence. So much can happen in a year. Twenty-year-old Jonas is taken in by the romance of soldiering, especially in defense of anti-slavery, even though he knows war is at odds with the teachings of the church. When his married brother's name comes up in the draft list, he volunteers to take his brother's place. But can the commitment Katie and Jonas have made to each other survive the separation?

From the talented pen of Jan Drexler comes this brand new Amish series set against the backdrop of the Civil War. She puts her characters to the test as they struggle to reconcile their convictions and desires while the national conflict threatens to undermine and engulf their community.

The Sound of Distant Thunder

I see that the first time reading this was in 2022, I did not write a review for some reason and loved this book. I had filled in the three rating for Overall, Performance and Story, all with five stars when I had finished listening. So I had rated without writing a review.

I wrote my reviews in Books 2 and 3, Raved about the whole series. Right now I am starting this Book 1 all over again in March 2023 and will continue with all three.

If you are looking for reviews for the series, check mine out for Book 2 and Book 3 as they are completed and excellent. Listen to all three books.

Narrator is Excellent, Amy Melissa Bentley. Hoping this helps anyone just starting this series and listening to this wonderful Author, JAN DREXLER.
