Review: Ginny Dye is a great historian and storyteller. I love her characters in this book. I feel like a part of their family. I want them to thrive and achieve their goals of reconstructing their lives, as well as helping the freedmen and people of the south that were defeated after the war. I have learned how people must have felt going through the hard times of despair and pain, mentally, as well as physically. This is a story of people, men and women, black and white, northerners and southerners. This was a time when freedmen wanted their rights, and women wanted to vote, and the haters of course making this virtually impossible. Love, passion, romance, hate, despair, cruelty and happiness will rip through you while reading this wonderfully written book. I suggest you get a copy of the first books in this series. I am looking forward to book #7 (Glimmers of Change) M.M.

Review: I have just finished reading this, the 6th book in the Bregdan Chronicles and I have one word to describe the whole saga...MAGNIFICENT I am a big fan of books from the Civil War Era, and this saga is without a doubt the BEST account I have ever read of that period of time. All of the characters are developed so colorfully and realistically that I have become very attached to them. As we all know, it was a time of great upheaval in our country, and these people live this upheaval every day of their lives. It was a dangerous time as well. The horror of the war is not downplayed one bit in these books...I would have been very disappointed if it was. I cannot WAIT for book #7 D. B.

Review: I would recommend this book to everyone Ginny Dye is a brilliant writer. Her intertwining of characters is amazing. You completely feel like you are in her book. She creates the scenes beautifully. This series is such a powerful testament to Faith, Love, Hope, and how people can change their hearts and the world I have never been more involved in a book series like this one If people were smart, they should turn this into a tv or movie series Brilliant D.Y.

Review: I started reading The Bregdan Chronicles a few months ago. I can't put them down Lots of amazing character growth and beautiful storytelling. This series is a must for any fan of historical fiction. It's quite thought provoking, as well as entertaining.. While it's sad to read about times when racism was so prevalent, it's also shocking to think that in 2024 it's still an issue. It's very inspiring for me to not only be just an ally, but to do more work and stay in the fight, just like so many of the amazing strong female characters in this series. I've learned a lot so far from this series and I'm sure I'll learn a lot more in the books to come. I've gotten very attached to all these characters and can't wait to see how their journey's progress K.D.
