The story was amazing

I really enjoyed this book because I could not see the ending coming. The plot lines were fresh and I always enjoy Charlie Yazzie stories.

THIS IS A GREAT SERIES

The characters are interesting throughout the series. I would preorder the next 5 today. The historical perspective is pretty accurate as well. The narrater does an excellent job.

I hope this series never ends

I just love the characters in this book series, they are so good! It feels like I know them, and as always can’t wait for the next one!

Least favorite of a fantastic series

Unrealistic and irrational behaviors by the main characters makes this one much less satisfying than the others.
