Avenging Sword, book two in a trilogy which takes place in West Chicago where hatred and bigotry still exist in the present day. Here on the streets, semi-automatics now replace the chains and switchblades that terrorized the civilians in days past.

Two predominant rival gangs demonstrate how their actions not only devour and destroy each other, but everyone who comes into their path. Old friends and new are affected in one way or another by the prejudice that plaques our society. Only through God's love can they rid themselves of this cancer that has destroyed mankind for centuries.

Reviewer Quotes:
"Mrs. Ravert captures the struggle of today’s youth and their need for acceptance even at the expense of joining gangs known for their brutality and senseless killings. Yet God’s word can meet you where you are and his forgiveness is available to us all. He can also provide a way out of no way. One can always seek refuge in the Word especially in times of crisis." -Carla Flemings, Apply the Word Ministries.com

"Proving she is at the top of her game, Melody Ravert takes her readers on a non stop ride into a world as real as it comes, mixes it with sound Christian values and teaching, and pulls off a tremendous read that is sure to touch your heart" -Rick Mohr Syndicated Reviewer, Midwest Book Review, and Dream Forge.com

"I usually hate novels that sequel..however, I gave Melody Ravert's Avenging Sword a chance, since I enjoyed her Shadow of Death novel.. WELL I WAS WRONG! This so called sequel is better than the first. Ravert's prose style has gotten better with age..and I await the third book with zest and wonderment, thinking what she might do with these characters next!" --- Bennet Pomerantz, Syndicated Media Critic
