I really enjoyed the book. I like how much character development there is. Woolley spends his words telling a story that is rewarding and insightful. I have been very unsatisfied by most books I've been reading lately this is a welcome change. The different threads are finally coming together now which has relieved my confusion. Especially on why the jewish story is here. I am glad there is another book I want all the details on how things will be resolved. Is there a sixth book? I can't find anything online. This would have been a fairly decent story if the author had:1. decided which story he wanted to tell;2. opted to leave out the sections about Joseph Smith;3. not tried so hard to prove his theory; and4. had not talked down to his reader as if they didn't know anything.A simple way to improve the book would have been to kept the course he started with this series and remained purely Book of Mormon times historical fiction. There was plenty enough story to tell and the addition of the story about the Jewish family (which would have made a great book all on its own) and the poorly re-told (and too-oft told by novelists) Joseph Smith story weakened the overall text.
This was a good book, but it draws out the history of what actually happened more than I like.

It was nice to have the saga finished and I liked how the author tied it all together.

This one took a little longer to grab my interest, but it was still interesting.

It's a cliffhanger for the fictional characters in the book. It ain't right...
