if i would’ve known the author wasn’t an indigenous individual, i wouldn’t have read this and recommend that you don’t read this. in terms of the plot, the beginning and middle are pretty good, but the ending is awful. the author also uses indigenous characters, history, folklore, etc. to further the story/plot for the white characters and then proceeds to kill off the indigenous characters??? only for the white characters who caused all of the problems for the now dead indigenous characters to walk away safe and happy? at the end of the book the author goes to speak on the exploitation of indigenous voices and stories but does that exact thing in the book he just wrote??? it almost feels like a joke.
