The Final Battle * NEW *. 9/17/24: Brooklyn NY : Artscroll Mesorah Publications. Khazar is an ancient land whose beauty has been marred by the civil war raging within it for seven harrowing years. On one side of the divide: King Istrak, a monarch true to the ideals of his ancestors and his Creator, and proud father of four-year-old Reuel, heir to the kingdom. On the other side, in what has been dubbed "New Khazar," reigns the silver-tongued but black-hearted usurper, Yosef Diaber. One fateful night, Istrak decides to leave the palace in disguise, to see the lives and travails of his subjects up close. But dark forces have been mustering against him. Before the night is over, he will find himself in a desperate battle to defeat those forces - and to rescue one whom he loves more than life itself. As Yosef Diaber sets in motion his cunning and brazen plot to seize total power, the last hope of Khazar lies in seventeen-year-old Pedahel. Seven years after his family's estate was unjustly confiscated by the king, Pedahel has set out to restore the lost glory of his father's house. Will he put aside his personal grievance to save the king - and all of Khazar? The Final Battle concludes the gripping saga that began with The Betrayal and was carried on through The Outcast and The Dark Secrets. This final installment of the epic bestselling Khazar series is as utterly breathtaking as the previous three. Meet heroic characters, old and new, as you turn the pages to learn the ultimate fate of the beautiful but divided kingdom of Khazar. 20240918.
