Canyons by Gary Paulsen

4.0

This book didn't pull me in until around page 75... and when it did, wowzers! Gary Paulsen did it again...this story still has the survival theme that runs through many of his stories which makes me a faithful reader. Canyons is historical fiction ( at least I'm sure most of it's fictional, though the Apaches vs soldiers is probably true) that interweaves two characters from different eras and different cultures. At first it is hard to tell where the story is going and why we are following these two diverse characters. In a swift moment it all becomes clear and the story takes off from there.
