Thoroughly enjoyed my read. I was interested the whole time, even when the author went on long tangents about flint napping or gathering herbs or whatever. I was IN IT. The archeological research is probably outdated by now, but it’s clear this author did her homework and then some, and created some really vivid characters besides. I’m excited to read the next one!
