ABRAHAM AND SARAH is an award-winning, intricately woven novel taken from authentic biblical and historical sources, revealing the fullness and richness of faith and love against a tapestry of ancient civilizations. Take all that can be gleaned from the classic narrative of Abraham and Sarah; add the wisdom of ancient and modern historians; intersplice the wealth of the most updated archaeological evidence; and a man and a woman of striking abilities, reality, and humanness appear. If Abraham lived in a pagan environment, how did he become a man of great faith? Who was Sarah? Is there any logical explanation for her dazzling beauty that charmed and enticed kings when she was at the age of seventy-five and again when she was ninety? Archaelogist Sir C. Leonard Woolley, observed that "amongst the shadowy characters of ancient history, Abraham stands out as a living personality whom we can know and with whom we can sympathize....and now, alongside this living personality, we find Sarah, perhaps the most remarkable, yet mysterious woman of all time " ABRAHAM AND SARAH is an epic love story, an engrossing page-turner for the ages, a must read for every person of faith.

From the Award-winning Author of Abraham and Sarah: Although the biblical narrative of Moses is widely known, the story of a pivotal woman in Moses' life remains a mystery that has both confounded and intrigued for thousands of years. Burning questions abound: Who was Pharaoh Hatshepsut and how did she rise to such prominence, so much so that a magnificent funeral monument was erected in her honor? Why was it that such a concerted attempt was made to erase all memory of Hatshepsut from the annals of ancient history? How did it come to be that so many inscriptions, depictions, and statues of this captivating figure were so deliberately defaced? Is it possible that she could have been the teenaged daughter of Pharaoh who plucked Moses from the Nile, then raised him as her own? What impact did Hatshepsut have as Moses grew to manhood, married a beautiful black woman, then was forced to flee into exile after learning of his Hebrew roots? Faithfully weaving the biblical account with little known historical and archaeological details, the author of Abraham and Sarah explores the ancient enigma of Moses and Hatshepsut, rescuing this fascinating woman from the bulrushes of anonymity.

From the Award-Winning Author of Abraham and Sarah: Since antiquity, the port city of Corinth has been a hot-bed of political intrigue, fabulous wealth, cruel invaders, stunning disasters and, most of all, human passions. J. SerVaas Williams lifts this captivating city-state out of the shifting sands of ancient Greece, painting its vivid hues over the canvas of time. VOYAGE OF THE IONIANS tells of the land settled by Noah's grandson, Ion, then ravaged by pirates who spared none but boys they sold into slavery. Years later, those grown boys would plot a daring escape, aided by an aged Ion and the survivors of Old Tarshish: a spirited band of young women. SECRET OF SUMER brings Enlilanna, High Priestess of Sumer, to Joseph during seven years of drought. Enlilanna sets her sites on the place she names Corinth, where she aims to build a temple denying Joseph's faith and the claim to the land held by the sole survivor of Ion's settlement, a thirteen year-old boy. THE FIRE TOWER finds Enlilanna's empire ruled by ten queens. His life threatened by rival royals, Prince Barzazi and his twin sister hide in Corinth's fire tower. When the greatest volcanic eruption in history on nearby Callista forces their flight, Barzazi yearns for the divine reality he once witnessed with Moses. INTERMEZZO finds Corinth suffering under Dorian rule. Forced to write propaganda, Tajepeh, discovers a Dorian plot against his homeland. Tajepeh fears for his beautiful Israelite wife, Jedudijah, a former dancer in King David's court. THE ORACLE AND THE TYRANT brings thousands of Jewish slaves out of Babylon and under the thumb of Periander, serving his wife's ambition to transform Corinth into the trade and cultural center of the world. THE DEVASTATORS follows liberated slaves to their homeland, Corinth, where they find little left of their former lives. Lovers Glycera and Diaeus become revolutionaries, resolved to rescue Corinth from Roman rule. HOUSE OF THE SWALLOW finds Paul at work for Priscilla and Aquila, who make their home and tent-making business with Jewess Helidonia and her son, Demas, a young thief with an eye for the lovely Phaedra.
