From the Back Cover

Sold into slavery by her father and forsaken by the man she was supposed to marry, young Egyptian Kiya must serve a mistress who takes pleasure in her humiliation. When terrifying plagues strike Egypt, Kiya is in the middle of it all.

Choosing to flee with the Hebrews, Kiya finds herself reliant on a strange God and drawn to a man who despises her people. With everything she's ever known swept away and now facing the trials of the desert, will she turn back toward Egypt or surrender her life and her future to Yahweh?

"Telling the story from the perspective of a Gentile who traveled alongside the escaping Hebrews, Cossette flips the script on the usual telling of the biblical tale in this promising debut work. Readers will smell the fear on Passover night, feel the wonder of the Red Sea crossing, and sympathize with the starving and thirsting of those escaping in the wilderness. The smart attention to detail and strongly developed characters also bode well for future installments of this Out of Egypt series."--
Publishers Weekly

"Her engrossing tale draws on the Book of Exodus and pays exquisite attention to the ancient setting, creating an exotic yet foreboding atmosphere. Biblical fiction buffs, especially those who follow Angela Hunt, Jill Eileen Smith, and Rebecca Kanner, are sure to be swept away by this promising new author."--Library Journal

"The first book in a new series, this was a fascinating look at the Hebrew Exodus through an Egyptian slave's eyes. The message of God's love for everyone is seen throughout the story."--CBA Retailers + Resources

Counted with the Stars is the first book in the Out from Egypt series by Connilyn Cossette. First off, look at this cover! This cover is absolutely gorgeous and thankfully, the pages within are just as good. This author is new to me and because of that, I had put off reading this book for some time. I wish I'd not have waited because I really enjoyed this book.As a Christian, I grew up hearing about the plagues and the Exodus from Egypt. I've always heard the tales from the viewpoint of the Hebrews. It was very interesting hearing the viewpoint of an Egyptian.Being that the Egyptians were a polytheistic society, it only makes sense that the Lord would have challenged their belief system. The author piqued my interest with the observation that the plagues challenged the Egyptian gods and goddesses. I couldn't help but do a little research myself.I love fiction that makes you think and gives you things to consider. This book certainly resulted in several days in my Bible and contemplating the spiritual applications I'd been missing from this epic Bible tale.The characters in Counted with the Stars are complex and authentic. As a mother, my heart also broke for the Egyptian mothers that the Egyptian mothers must have felt with the last plague. I felt that this book did a good job humanizing characters from the Bible. I feel guilty that I had never considered their humanity. The fears that one must have felt when their gods provided no aid; I just can't even imagine. It had to have been terrifying.I look forward to picking up the rest of this series and learning more about them as they start their journey in the wilderness.

  • Reviewed in the United States on June 9, 2017
    Counted With the Stars (2016) by Connilyn Cossette is the first book in the Out From Egypt series. This novel comes in all forms including eBook, and is roughly 353 pages in length. With a full-time job and a five-year old at home, I was able to read this novel in two and half days. I give this novel 5 STARS. It is a Christian Biblical novel set during the time of the Hebrew Exodus from Egypt.

    I want to begin by explaining how exceptionally well researched this novel is. In her Note from the Author, Ms. Cossette explains that she believes, “unapologetically, that the Word of God and its histories are true” (326). Most secular Egyptologists today accept the writings of a 3rd century Egyptian priest named Manetho to accurately illustrate the Exodus period. But, because they conflict with the Biblical account of the Exodus, Ms. Cossette explains that she held Manetho’s work suspect. Cossette goes on to say, “When anything conflicts with the Bible, I will always defer to the Word” (326). When an author is reluctant to use a source because it conflicts with the Bible, you know you have an author after God’s heart! For me, this makes all the difference when I come upon any Biblical novel. If you struggle with Biblical fiction because you worry it strays from God’s Word, fear not with this book.

    This novel is told through a first-person narrative. I’m not typically a fan of that type of narration, but it really works in this novel. Kiya, the protagonist, is a genuine character; her reactions, inner dialogue, and behaviors all line up with a very well written, believable persona. Kiya, until 16, was raised in a very wealthy Egyptian home. Anything and everything was at her disposal. She had the best food, the latest clothing, the finest make-ups, and was betrothed to a handsome military man in Pharaoh’s army. But, Kiya’s father loses everything and sells his daughter into slavery in order to pay off his debts. The reader watches as Kiya suffers at the hands of Tekurah, Kiya’s new mistress. Tekurah hates Kiya, and everyone knows it.

    In this period of enslavement, Kiya meets a Hebrew slave named Shira and they become friends. Shira, through her kindness, sacrifices, and stories, teaches Kiya about the Hebrew God, Yahweh. Also, during this period, Kiya and her fellow Egyptians are devastated by the Ten Plagues. One of the most fascinating things in this novel is seeing the Biblical story played out through the eyes of an Egyptian. The writing is SO well executed that when Kiya describes the plague of darkness I actually found myself feeling claustrophobic and noticed that my breathing became shallow. I laughed at myself when I realized I was doing this, but this moment made me think on that plague for a minute. Life without LIGHT, which is really life without GOD, would be terribly excruciating. It would make a person go crazy! I mean, imagine days with NO light of any kind. No fires, no lamp, no stars, no moon, NOTHING — just darkness. I once went on a cave tour when I was a kid. I thought I was going to lose it when the tour guide turned off the lights in the cave for five minutes. I couldn’t last five minutes without light! How could I have made it through the plague of darkness?

    Experiencing each plague and the actual exodus with Kiya brought the Exodus story to life. It shames me to say, but I don’t think I have ever put myself into the Exodus story before. I’ve read Exodus many times, but never through the eyes of a Hebrew or of one of the “mixed multitudes.” If I am honest, I have really only read Exodus as a cool story I get through and then check it off as I do my daily Bible study. But this is the beauty of Biblical fiction: it forces you to interact with Biblical stories and the Bible with your eyes open! And, that is why I love reading these types of novels so much.

    One more issue that this book brought to my attention was the confrontation with untruth. There is a terribly sad moment in the novel where Kiya breaks down and cries out her frustration to her gods. She asks, “Where were the gods?” (111). Then she lists the gods who hadn’t helped her people as she replays each plague that had already hit her country. She realizes that the Hebrew God, Yahweh, is attacking each Egyptian god. That these were pointed, powerful attacks. Then, and to me this is the saddest, she realizes she has no one to ask about this Hebrew God and these plagues. Shira is not available to Kiya at the moment because she had to flee to her own home (getting near the 10th plague at this point). This is sad to me because I think about the many, many people out in the world today who may question their current beliefs, who may want to talk to someone about God, but don’t have anyone to talk to about their questions, feelings, frustrations, and doubts. How many people could believe in the one-true God if only they had someone available to discuss Him with them? This is an excellent reminder for me as a Christian — I need to be more available and I need to pray more for all people regardless of what they believe because God made them all. Again, shamefully, I admit that my prayers focus more on me and my immediate circle, and I tend to never really leave my safe comfort zone of communication.

    If you are looking for an excellent Biblical novel that is well written and well researched, then I highly recommend Counted With the Stars. This novel is fast paced, engaging, and thought-provoking. You will not be disappointed with this book.

    I wasn't sure if I was really interested in this book or not but I had picked it up along the way so.... . Once I started reading Counted with the Stars, I found that I could not put the book down. I really enjoyed seeing the plagues from a realistic, survived it, point of view. This story really brought them to life for me. Also, reading about being a part of the Exodus was interesting.

    As a new (all-in) Christian, this book was such a fantastic way to visualize the bible times. Though fiction, there is much history. It was so cool to think what it could have been like in Egypt during this time. For new or established Christians, or even non-believers, this book is a fantastic read! Would be a great gift to a nonbeliever or new Christian who has questions. We all know the bible can be confusing and intimidating, and things like this (and like The Chosen -a must watch!) make it so relatable! I’d love to see a tv series or movie on this book! I just started the second book in this series as well and so excited for it! Recommending to friends, family, and on my upcoming podcast!

    4.0 out of 5 stars Uma história boa
    Reviewed in Brazil on December 22, 2024
    Sobre a versão ebook: ótima, sem erros.

    Sobre o livro: (CONTÉM SPOILER)
    Eu tinha começado a ler os livros desta autora pelo Wings of the Wind porque entrou em promoção e a sinopse pareceu interessante. Connylin tem uma escrita leve, com ritmo - os capítulos sempre puxam vc a continuar lendo o próximo, e a história está sempre em movimento. Quando entendi que a proposta da autora era seguir uma linhagem de personagens ao longo dos livros, decidi começar pelo primeiro livro da série - e consegui pegar Counted with the stars em promoção.
    A Kiya é uma boa protagonista, mas é um pouco burra às vezes - ela comete muitos erros e demora a perceber e entender as coisas, e eu não estou falando do lado espiritual, então ela não me pareceu muito inteligente. Dei um desconto porque ela é egípcia e é bem jovem, e não tem um adulto pra colocá-la nos eixos, então ela tem que aprender tudo sozinha. Ela tem coragem, o que é talvez sua principal qualidade. Gostei muito do Eben, de longe o melhor personagem do livro. Achei desnecessário colocá-lo como indiretamente culpado da morte do pai. O desejo de vingança dele contra os egípcios era uma premissa mais interessante sem isso. Tbm não gostei que a mãe da Kiya foi assassinada pelos amalequitas, outro sofrimento desnecessário e que tornou meio sem sentido a cena do primeiro beijo do casal. Bastava que o Eben tivesse ido pra guerra contra os amalequitas e a Kiya tivesse orado por ele. Tbm não gostei muito da cena ao pé do Sinai, esperava ver uma descrição maior de Deus falando com o povo e sem a suposta conversão dele, até pq a gente sabe que em 40 dias o povo ia adorar o bezerro de ouro (embora não todos), além disso devia ter mostrado a arrogância da Kiya, o medo que ela tinha de Deus como os piores pecados e não ela respondendo a Tekurah - até porque ela não tinha culpa de ser filha do marido dela com outra mulher.

    Numa escala de 0 a 10, eu daria um 7 pra esse livro. É bom, mas do que li do terceiro até agora (42%), o terceiro é bem melhor. Espero que seja um indicativo de que a escrita da autora amadureceu ao longo do tempo.

    WOW, This is the first book I have read by Connilyn Cossette and it won't be the last. What a wonderful book Counted With the Stars is.
    I was hoping when I bought the book that it was a stand alone and it was, but the book was so good I wanted to buy Connilyn's next book in the Out from Egypt Series. The book was so well written, so very very interesting and as well as reading a wonderful fiction story about the Hebrews before and during the Exodus which I didn't want to put down, I learnt such a lot of things that as a Christian I hadn't thought of. i.e. the reason God gave all these plagues to the Egyptians. I have just finished the second book (review separate) and can't wait for the third book to be released. You will not be disappointed with this author her story telling is amazing.

    If you love Francine Rivers Hadassa/Mark of the Lion Series you will like this one.
    You can't compare These two, of course, but C. Cossette takes you back to the times of Israel in Egypt and makes you want to
    read the Story again. What a gripping perspective of the Events. Always written in the perspective of the Egyptian slave/Girl you realize how powerful God's works were seen then, - and that you still get a choice. Worth reading!
