This book is one of the better books and I’ve read this year, and I read a lot. There was something for everyone: adventure, spirituality, and a struggle between man and nature. But the true gem at the heart of this story was the unconventional love story between the two protagonists. The author weaves her tale with precision and artistry. But her true gift is her ability to draw her character with intelligence and humanity.
