My Review
The Reckoning not only brought this series to an end, it proved a stern point. Amish fiction is far from boring and Beverly Lewis depicted a wonderful story. Katherine Mayfield, the main character in this series, is adjusting well to her new, “fancy” life and becoming more of an “Englisher” than she ever thought possible.
Katherine struggles with her old love, Daniel, and her new love, Justin and what she really wants in her life. Even though she misses her life in Hickory Hollow, she also loves the fancy things she has always dreamed of having. She misses her adoptive mother, Rebecca and her best friend, Mary among other simple life things.
The narrator of this audiobook series, Marguerite Gavin, is wonderful. Gavin uses a very believable Amish dialect when she speaks the phrases of the characters and also has a very captivating voice. I’m thankful that Blackstone Audio used the same narrator throughout the series, it makes the story flow better from book to book.
I was glad that so many things were concluded in this book. I really feel that Lewis left no stone unturned and that I was satisfied with the ending. I don’t like to be left hanging; wondering what happened to a certain character or relationship.
Overall, the Heritage of Lancaster County Series is wonderful and captivating. I truly enjoyed all three books, especially The Reckoning because it tied together every loose end. I will be listening to more Amish fiction soon, these stories really keep my attention.
