Resumen del Editor

John Hood’s Folklore Cycle series uses elements of folklore and epic fantasy to tell the story of America’s founding in a fresh and exciting way. The first book in the series, Mountain Folk, was largely set during the American Revolution and featured such historical characters as George Washington, Alexander Hamilton, and Daniel Boone.

In the second novel, Forest Folk, the focus shifts to the War of 1812, the beginnings of the abolitionist movement, and the Trail of Tears. As the story begins, the new American republic is struggling to reconcile its lofty principles with the practical realities of a rapidly expanding nation. Three fairy rangers who helped the country win its independence—Goran the Sylph, Har the Dwarf, and Dela the Water Maiden—now find they must seek new alliances with the likes of Davy Crockett, Johnny Appleseed, Ichabod Crane, and the Cherokee hero Junaluska to combat a monstrous new conspiracy against peace, justice, and freedom on the frontier.

I was not Impressed

I needed to listen to book 1 before this book to make sense of it. I was not impressed by either of them though wrapped around historical people and events tge author did not do enough research on native people's culture, beliefs, and actual history. Narrator does a good job with storyline.
