 The final sequel of Abram's daughters-and the best one yet! A++ for Lewis again! October 19, 2007
In this final book of Abram's daughter's, many things are happening at once. Sadie has settled in well, and she and Leah have become the very best of friends. Abram has married Aunt Lizzie, Leah's birthmom.
Lydiann is well into her rumpspringhe years, and happens to fall in love with cousin Jake Mast, of whom all of the Ebersol's are estranged from and appears that it would be that way forever. And Leah and Sadie both know that they are going to have to get Lydiann away from Jake as she is his aunt and does not know it. Sadie gave birth to Jake and then Dr. Scoltz swapped her baby with Fannie Mast's dead twin, knowing that it would have been a disgrace to Sadie to keep Jake at the time. When the terrible secret is discovered, Henry Mast, the father wants Jake out of his sight, and is killing mad. And since Jonas is very much in love with Leah, he goes along with Jake too. This is a sad state of affairs.
Mary Ruth is very happy and is expecting her second baby in this book.
Sadie is falling in love with Eli Yoder, and the two go courting together and eventually make plans to marry by the end of the book.
Hannah is expecting yet another baby, and is always fighting depression constantly. She becomes involved with this witchcraft doctor, which makes Gid very displeased. When he finds out what Hannah is doing, he makes her promise to not give in to the witchcraft doctor again. But when Hannah breaks her promise the second time, it causes a rift between the two for awhile.
Bishop Bontrager has forbidden Leah and Jonas to marry until Jonas's proving is complete, which the bishop has extended when he finds out that Jonas has been working with wood, which he is not supposed to do. The bishop makes him completely commit to farming, which is what all the Amish men are supposed to be doing. Then when a tragedy occurs, and Jonas plays a role in tryingto rescue Bishop Bontrager in a buggy accident, things change and Jonas's proving will be cut short. A new bishop is then appointed from Ohio whom is more open-minded.
The Mast family, (cousins), and Ebersol's will come together after Henry is involved in yet another buggy accident because of his drunkeness. Leah sees Henry on this day, and gets hurt herself trying to help her drunk cousin out. Abram and Abe take Henry to their home to get him out of the cold and into bed. It is then that things turn around and Henry changes his whole attitude for the better.
Leah has another surprise in store when Lizzie tells her who her birth father is. It is another surprise waiting to be discovered.
And when Jonas and Leah finally wed, it is the greatest day of all.
 Anti-Climax September 13, 2007
I don't know if I am qualified to write a review for this being that I didn't read any other book in this series except The Betrayal which is excellent. However, this book comes off as a somewhat sappy close to a over-dramatic saga and I feel like the story had outstayed it's welcome and I was glad to say a dignifying goodbye to the none the less great characters Beverly Lewis created.
The Revelation was very revealing! April 13, 2007
This was a wonderful conclusion to the five book series. I read each book in a day, sometimes staying up until 4 a.m. to finish! I thought The Revelation was a great happy ending, the Ebersols deserved to find happiness after so much great loss. Read it!
