REBECCA'S CHOICE is a captivating sequel to Scott's IVANHOE – a book that has been a source of delight to generations of readers. In this new and surprising tale, Rebecca, a Jewess barely saved from being burned at the stake by the Templars, discovers that her former oppressor, the Templar knight Brian de Bois-Guilbert, is not dead but just unconscious. Fate delivers the life of her enemy into her hands and she must make a choice between revenge and compassion. Rebecca decides to conceal him and he leaves England in her company, disguised as a Jew, while being hunted by his Templar brothers who fear disclosure of the true secrets of the Order. After a long journey, full of dangers, they arrive at Rabbi Moses' (Maimonides) residence in Egypt, where Rebecca and Brian part ways – seemingly forever. But unexpected adversaries and many more adventures await both of them. Everyone involved in this story tries to fulfill his own ambitions: Brian wants to become king of the war-torn Crusader Kingdom; Rabbi Moses tries to understand God and the Universe; Hamed, the freed slave, desires revenge. But only Rebecca will achieve what seems the impossible.
