3.5 stars. This book reads like a collection of like themed novels. The stories themselves are about different periods of historic times in Hawaii, and have some character overlap, but are not always extensions of each other.
I like this concept, but the quality varies significantly from story to story. The missionaries sorry is filled with hope dialog and is too long. The"modern" chapter is oddly narrated, and feels out of touch.
That said the book is lush with descriptions and is written with care and love. If it were 600 pages and not 1000, I might have enjoyed it more.
