The story was well written but the narrator was like listening to corn dry. I like listening to stories that have history in them but the narrator ruined it by the monotone voice and boring storytelling.

This series is one of the best I have ever read. The characters are easy to get involved with. I am an avid reader of Indian history and this writer is by far my favorite. ( about 50 yrs of reading and going on for more). Be sure you read the whole series (3 books) I would have liked more.

Like the cycles of the Seasons; All Turns, turns!
Excellent experience and for me, very emotional, being one raised along the Mississippi and very interested in the history of the Mound Builders and Pueblo peoples.
As my own journey continues to cycle like all of life and time. I find deep ties to the life and experiences of the earliest, True Americans.
Well written and historically correct from my self sought-after information.
I can only hope, that enough modern Americans will find this story and think of what it should truly be, as a modern American and give our prehistory and historical continental ancestors their due respect.
I believe we are all brothers and sisters of the World, a single Rainbow Tribe. A Ho.
