Amal: The Diamond Statue of Liberty: 1

Three years after her father's death, nineteen-year-old Amal finally learns the truth her mother, Shukran, has kept buried: an ancient sword hidden in an old oak, a guardian's shield locked away in a ruined crusader keep, and a legacy of Seven Wisdoms passed down through centuries. When a burning plane falls from the sky and a wounded pilot named Steve washes ashore, Amal is pulled into a war not her own - trading her mother's fear for a soldier's uniform, and an ordinary blade for one that has never taken a life.From trenches to a liberated village, from a runaway tank to a blinding transformation no one warned her about, Amal becomes something the world has no name for: the Diamond Statue of Liberty. Book Five of "A Tale of the Seven Wisdoms" is a story of grief carried alongside courage, of a mother and daughter learning what legacy truly means - and of a light that, once kindled, cannot simply go back to sleep.
