I love finding new authors and Connilyn Cossette is my new favourite! Her debut novel Counted With the Stars is book one in her Out From Egypt series and if you love Biblical Fiction, you will love this book.

Kiya is a young Egyptian woman born into a life of luxury. With servants at her beck and call she has never learned the true meaning of "hard labour". All that changes when her father sells her into slavery to pay off the many debts he has accumulated through his extravagant lifestyle.

Kiya suddenly finds herself alone, without her family and in an environment hostile to her. The slaves don't like or trust her because she used to order them around and her new mistress is never letting her forget what she once had.

In the midst of adjusting to her new life, she meets a young Hebrew girl named Shira, who has pity on her and helps her adjust to her new life. When terrifying plagues start to strike Egypt Kiya flees with the Hebrews and begins a new journey away from her many gods and finds the one true God instead.

This book has a little bit of everything in it - romance, intrigue, danger and of course the history of the Hebrews flight from Egypt under the guidance of Moses. Connilyn Cossette has made the Bible come to life and presents a believable story of the Exodus from Egypt that even Jewish readers would appreciate. If you like Biblical Fiction Counted with the Stars will not disappoint you. I highly recommend it.
