In the same genre as The Wedding Dress and With This Ring, author Marian Wells brings history and fiction together in a powerful novel of light and darkness, truth and falsehood, good and evil. Jenny, living in the frontier districts of New York and Ohio in the early 1800's, is a bright and unusually inquisitive young girl. Though surrounded by poverty, enduring abuse by a drunken father, and in spite of limited schooling and spiritual guidance, curious and quick-minded Jenny reaches out for something different. The window out of her restricted life is the world of books. The green-covered one, her father's forbidden book, holds an overwhelming fascination for her. Will Jenny Find Truth, or Is She on a Dangerous Road With No End in Sight? (c) Amazon.com

I enjoyed each of the books in the Starlight Trilogy. Much of the reason I enjoyed them so much was that I grew up in a Mormon populated area and am always interested in knowing more about the Mormon religion. I found these books to be stark in their realism, and at times, emotional. If you like reading about the Mormons, I am sure you'll want to check out these books by Marian Wells.

Jenny's search for truth and for power to control her own destiny continues even into her marriage to the young lawyer, Mark Cartwright. Her happiness and security with Mark are often shadowed by dark thoughts and frightening memories. The very beliefs which seemed to have brought them together are now pulling them apart - Light and darkness, truth and falsehood, good and evil will Jenny discover the path to freedom?

The sequel to STAR LIGHT, STAR BRIGHT and the completion of Jenny's search for truth. Out of her dark childhood memories, her fascination with the spirit world and her conversion to Mormonism, Jenny has been slowly but surely groping toward spiritual light and truth. Her young husband Mark has gone through his own sometimes painful spiritual journey and has discovered the true way of faith. His consistent witness brings Jenny to the ultimate choice: spiritual bondage or bowing her knee at the feet of the only true "Morning Star." Historical fiction in the best sense accurate setting, powerful characters and compelling truth. (c) Amazon.com
