"...an epic and engaging coming-of-age story. What may feel foreign, a very specific Jewish Civil War drama from over 2100 years ago, is undeniably human and relatable....worth every penny."

Midwest Book Review's Testimonial
"How do individuals rise above their heritage, teachings, and lives to transform in an entirely new way? Haim's journey is that of "everyman" and will resonate even with readers not normally attracted to historical fiction, or who have little grounding in the era under consideration in Blind Man's Labyrinth. Recommended for history, spirituality, and philosophy readers alike, the story is powerful in its juxtaposition of orphans struggling to uncover meaning in a world at war, and brings the times to life in a manner that will appeal to a wide audience."

The Prairies Book Review's Testimonial
“A blazing story of survival, perseverance, and kinship…There are several menacing moments, with Potters’ clever plotting laying the groundwork for an exhilarating, heart wrenching ending. The novel’s long arc reaches far beyond Haim’s journey to faraway lands to escape the raging war: it also delves into the questions of survival, mortality, family, friendship, identity, meaning, and self-discovery. Haim and Chaya’s journey as social outcasts is heart wrenching, and their story rooted in reality.”
