Gods & Kings, by Lynn Austin

Lynn takes the story of Hezekiah from the books of the Old Testament and expounds on what Hezekiah's life may have looked like. As a boy growing up in the shadow of his evil father, King Ahaz, he witnessed the worship of idols and and the desecration of God's Holy Temple and even the sacrifice of his two brothers. Yet, God in His providence preserved Hezekiah to one day reign as king in the way of David.

This book was an enjoyable read, giving insight into the Israel of First and Second Kings. I look forward to reading the next in the series.
