ABOUT THE BOOK:
Sophie Frangos is torn between the love of two men and the promise that binds them all together. Markos Stavros loves Sophie from afar while battling his thirst for vengeance and his hunger for honor. Dino, his quiet and intelligent brother, simply wants to forget the horror that drove them from their Greek island home to start a new life in America. One of these sons of thunder offers a future she longs for, the other the past she lost. From the sultry Chicago jazz clubs of the roaring twenties to the World War II battlefields of Europe to a final showdown in a Greek island village, they'll discover betrayal, sacrifice and finally redemption. Most of all, when Sophie is forced to make her choice, she'll learn that God honors the promises made by the Sons of Thunder.
Sons of Thunder launches the new Romantic Suspense line for Summerside Press - it will be available to purchase in Wal-mart mid-January. Also - its uniquely written - its an epic suspense story written as three novellas - 3 points of view, 3 settings.
MY THOUGHTS:
Is there no end to Susan May Warren's talent? I have yet to read one of her books and not be amazed by her ability to sweep me away from my mundane world. She can take any story and deposit her readers into another world within just a few sentences. In Sons of Thunder, she deals with one of my favorite periods of history from a perspective I haven't seen before and she takes the reader from the deep blue ocean of Greece, to the heyday of bootlegging Chicago, to the horrors of WWII and Nazi atrocities. In the midst of those backdrops she adds intrigue, betrayal, heartbreak, and the shame of doing whatever one must to survive.
With a skill that can only be God-given, Susan May Warren weaves this story of love, forgiveness, and redemption into an amazing gift of hope for anyone who reads it.
