I found myself on edge, uneasy and absolutely dreading the turn this story was about to take, which is to say I loved it and it did its job.
While I would have preferred a bit more development and at times felt the story rushed, this was an absolutely eerie and powerful read.
I cannot wait to read the next book!

A slow paced, clear and immersive story. It is a glimpse in the life of a native tribe that is in the process of changing. I felt like the changes described were a wave touching out modern lives just a bit at the very thinnest edge. While the smaller story issues are addressed, there are no concrete conclusions or big resolutions. The story the author is telling just isn’t one that explains the biggest picture. I have little patience for dream sequences, if I was reading with my eyes I would have skimmed them. It is possible those dream stories give you some of the big picture situation that I missed, I just can’t pull the right story threads from those scenes.
Normally I prefer more action and explanation, but despite (or maybe because of) the starkness I found this story addictive. I’m sure I’ll think about it later.
