About this series
Zita only wants to worship Adonai and see justice done for a wronged woman, but the sins of the Hittites of Hattus force him to endure heartache and unimaginable suffering, until finally he finds his place as peacemaker of the ancient world.
Zita, prince of Hebron, has grown up far from Hattusha, the sprawling capital of the Hittite Empire. The heritage of the Hittites of Hebron under his father Ephron is one of friendship with Abraham the Hebrew and Adonai their Elohim. When they take Zita's sister Basemath to Hattusha to arrange a marriage, Zita shoulders "the Pawley problem" and endures the taunts of women who may hold the key to keeping the peace amid international intrigues. Zita meets another Basemath and learns he can be more than just "a little tagalong." From overseeing the building of Hebron to defending the city of Hattusha to playing his own part in preserving the Hittites, Zita learns that an engineer, a warrior, a seeker of justice, and a survivor of devastating injury and tragedy can become a peacemaker. He just has to be willing to choose Adonai's way when he thinks he has no choice.

- Ephron Son of Zohar: Ephron the Hittite, #1
1
Meet the man who met Abraham. Ephron wants to honor his father and unite his people but his intended bride has other ideas. Ephron's father Zohar chooses him to lead their family. He not only has vital skills to ensure the security and growth of their tribe but he is still unmarried. Zohar plans to unite the Hittite tribes using Ephron and his sister as peace children in arranged marriages. Marauding enemies and rising waters threaten the homelands of fellow Hittites but no one wants to sacrifice autonomy just for safety, food, clothing, and shelter. Family patriarch Heth's arrival might settle the unrest, but when he does not appear, his representatives find rising tensions and a need for desperate action to show strength, unity, and prosperity. Ephron can't force Shelometh, his intended bride, to marry him. She has a choice: make his tireless work pay off, or destroy his future and her own.
- Tawananna Daughter of Zohar: Ephron the Hittite, #2
2
Meet the dragonslayer who feeds her people and stands ready to rule them, if she can only tame her brother's rebellious wife. Tawananna loves her people and her brother Ephron. The arranged marriage between herself and Elon seems likely to show strength and unite the clans. It might even tame Shelometh's rebellious heart. Tawananna is a slayer of dragons and the best archer in the village. But her greatest challenge comes when she has to sit and do nothing while her people face the army of Sargon. Tawananna receives a visit from her grandmother, known to some as Heth's whore and to others as Athena, Goddess of Wisdom and Battle. Premarital counseling from a 300-year-old concubine might make the difference between victory and defeat in the quest to forge the Hittite Empire. You don't want to miss any of the tales of Ephron the Hittite and his family.
- Heth Son of Canaan Son of Ham, Son of Noah: Ephron the Hittite, #3
3
The Hittite patriarch finally arrives to officiate at the weddings, oversee the empire's birth, and possibly thwart an invasion by Sargon. Heth worries that the Hittite Empire will be attacked from without. His chariots are more than just new and showy war machines. They might make the difference between life and death as Sargon turns his eye toward Hattus. Zohar is more worried about corruption within. Tawananna and Elon's new life together puts them in the crosshairs of everyone who wants to destroy the fledgling empire. How many laws do they need? How many houses and walls? Winter puts off the danger of invasion for a time, but what will happen when the greatest warrior begins to feel the effects of Lamech's Curse? You don't want to miss any of the tales of Ephron the Hittite and his family.

As Queen of Hebron she helped unite the empire and almost died in childbirth. Can the friend of both Hagar and Sarah heal the breach created by running ahead of Adonai's will? Can Hagar help Shelometh uncover a shameful secret reaching into the soul of the Hittite and Mitanni Empires? You don't want to miss any of the tales of Ephron the Hittite and his family.
