We continue to follow the Dabney family through the Civil War Era in this 2nd book of the series.
The author doesn't disappoint. Living around the areas mentioned, I can picture all that is happening in the book as if I'm there. The author writes in a way that we can see and feel what the characters are.

When Heaven Thunders by Kendy Pearson is a thrilling fictional story set amongst true events of the Civil War. It’s the second book in her series entitled West Virginia: Born of Rebellion’s Storm. The description of landscape and war tactics are equally compelling, drew me deeper into this riveting tale of patriotism, family love, of course, romance and battling bitterness through treacherous trials. Learning that God’s will and direction are always best are some of my most favorite parts of this book. And to think, book 3 is coming soon. Yay!!

I received a complimentary copy of this book from the author. The opinions expressed are completely my own.

I find this West Virginia: Born of Rebellion's Storm series to be completely captivating, page-turning, thought-provoking, and inspirational! I am SO glad to be immersed in this captivating second story in the series, When Heaven Thunders, with it's wonderful characters and many new ones. What a compelling story from the first line "His family is missing. Bushwackers are sleeping in his bed. This war just got a heap more personal for Union Sergeant Fin Dabney" to the last line. Continuing in the tradition of the first story in the series, this one, set in the civil war is also heart-warming, heart-breaking, and authentic. I could not put it down and cannot wait for more! I highly recommend this excellent civil war historical fiction, When Heaven Thunders (book 2), and When the Mountains Wept (book 1). Waiting (not patiently ha!) for book 3! Author Kendy Pearson with her impeccable research, and beautiful story-telling crafts an absolute winner with this series!
