Might come back to it. But its kind of boring and has dated views/characters/plot

Though at times long winded and riddled with old English, the author creates artful depictions of the setting, scenes and emotional states of the characters. An exciting adventure with ups and downs that highlights how a challenging situation can bring unlikely friends together.

Geez. This book was just not interesting at all to me. I've never read a book that had such vast vocabulary and vivid descriptive details of dialog. In my opinion it didn't fit the style and genre of the book at all. To make it worse, the narrator for the audiobook [a:Bill Weideman|748832|Bill Weideman|https://s.gr-assets.com/assets/nophoto/user/u_50x66-632230dc9882b4352d753eedf9396530.png] complemented the writing style. He talked. That's all. The voice didn't fit. I can't even explain how completely off both the author and narrator were to the story. It just didn't fit at all. My best example is when Marty McFly goes back to 1885 dressed in those Chinese clothes that Doc had him wear. Or maybe T-Rex in Outer Space.

It's not a bad book though. It's just weird how it was written. Strange. I'm so stumped right now. I don't know what to do the rest of the day. It fried my brain and didn't fry it at the same time.

Too bloody and gruesome to be a good read, there was little action outside of physical fighting.

All I knew of this book was what I can recall in seeing from the movie.   There was maybe one or two things similar in the movie. I enjoyed reading this all the same, to me the Iroquois in the book where much more ruthless and unforgiving.
