Opening in 1936, the Zion Covenant series tells the courageous and compelling stories of those who risk everything to stand against the growing tide of Nazi terrorism that is sweeping through central Europe under the dangerous and deceitful guise of Hitler's Third Reich. A new study guide is included in each book.

Summary: Danzig Passage
Comment: This is one in a series of 9 books. I can't put them down! We read a Thoene book and ordered a series to read...this Zion Covenant series because my husband likes anything to do with WW2. They concentrate on mostly Christian Jews trying to get away from Hitler and the people that help them.
These books emphasis the power of prayer in our lives and how God can take the impossible and make it possible. Some of the ways God uses to get people, esp. children, out of Hitler's reach is just amazing!
The Thoene's are excellent writers! We plan to read all of their books now!

Summary: Woman bashing but good
Comment: I give this movie 4 stars mainly because of the character of Alfie Halder and the genuine portrayal of one of the darkest times in history. The scenes involving Karl Ibsen's imprisonment are as heart-renching as the scenes describing the Kalner boys' escape and their refuge in New Church are tense and heart-stopping. The New Church scenes bring to mind the atmosphere of the Diary of Anne Frank. Lori Ibsen is rather like Anne, dealing with physical and emotional changes in herself (she seems to both love and hate Jacob Kalner) as well as the dangers brought about by war.
Indeed, Lori, Lucy and Marlene, the three new females introduced in this book, are the reason for my less than perfect review. All the problems that the Wallich family and the "Danzig Gang" suffer seem to be solely because of their female members. Lori and Marlene are always whining or arguing or doing something that puts the others' lives in danger. Lucy is something of a silly weakling though she does get better as the book goes along. I wished for some more likeable, heroic females like Elisa, Leah and Victoria of the previous books in this series rather than the weak, disobedient "daughters of Eve" found here. BROCK Thoene must've helped his wife write this one; there is so much woman bashing! And as for Peter Wallich, I HATED HIM! His sister Marlene is just a child, after all, and he is BEASTLY to her. When reading about him, I tried to tell myself that he, like Jacob and Lori, is trying to deal with growing up fast and handling a difficult, adult situation, but still I wanted to shake him! After enduring so many arguements and frustrations at the hands of the Danzig gang and the Wallichs, the scenes involving Alfie and Werner kitty were like a breath of fresh air. Alfie is something of a foil for the other characters in this book. He seems simple, yet he understands the dangers that he's in. Of all the characters, he is probably the most untouched by the war, still maintaining his innocence and his happy outlook on life. When you can identify with and understand characters that you don't particularly like, it is a sign of a good writer. Yes, I rank this 5th on my enjoyable scale of the six Zion Covenant book, the tragic Munich Signature being 6th. Maybe it's not my favorite in the series, but still very good. I recommend it.

Summary: The Zion Covenant 6-book series by Bodie Thoene
Comment: This fictional series, which is based on an historical era, is the best that I have ever read. Brock and Bodie Thoene combine just enough history with fictional characters to truly capture the reader's interest as well as offer some real insights into the experiences of those who lived through the holocaust. It was difficult to put the book down. I could read this series over and over again. I anxiously look for new books by B&B Thoene, because of the Covenant and Chronicle series, both of which I have read and enjoyed thoroughly!
