Kindle Daily Deals For Wednesday, May 29 – New Bestsellers All at Bargain Prices! plus The Freedom Star by Jeff Andrews

The Freedom Star immerses readers in the lives, dreams, and sufferings of two families, one owned by the other, at the outset of the Civil War. Isaac yearns for the freedom that Henry, his boyhood friend and owner’s son, takes for granted. Although they share similar dreams, Isaac’s life as a slave promises only hardships, while Henry enjoys his first year as a cadet at West Point, oblivious to his friend’s suffering. When war comes, Henry joins the Confederates. Soon after, his father takes ill and his older brother seizes control of the family farm. Abruptly, slaves are forced to endure the whip, Isaac’s father is sold south, and the atmosphere in the slave quarters becomes as oppressive as the August sun on a dusty tobacco field.Following a series of false promises and futile escape attempts, Isaac’s only hope of reuniting with the woman he loves lies in joining Henry and the Rebels on their march north. When Henry is wounded and taken prisoner, Isaac finds himself behind Union lines and free, but facing a dilemma. Should he follow his dreams, or return to slavery to save his childhood friend?

The Freedom Star offers readers a powerful and evocative family saga with poignant characters and compelling layers of story that will hold readers until the very last page.

“Just finished reading “The Freedom Star”. A Civil War History buff and avid reader of many Civil War related books this work captures the pathos of those victimized by slavery as well as the ethos of the institution of slavery. I found Jeff Andrews’ book both powerful and evocative. His insights and sense of awareness provide for a forceful and convincing narrative. Job well done.”
