review 1: There aren't enough superlatives for this review. This being the sixth in the series, chances are you're as enamoured of these characters and their world as much as I am and are maybe wondering if this book is as good as the last book. It's not - it's better!The Hmongs are coming to town to settle a score with Red Crow while Nitz finds what he needs to bring Red Crow to justice. Carol Red Crow is in for a nasty surprise while Bad Horse faces down Diesel for the last time and dodges Red Crow's men to keep his undercover identity secret. Meanwhile Falls Down finds Catcher's secret and the solution to the mystery of Gina Bad Horse's murderer.Suffice it to say, there is a helluva lot of action going on in this book which doesn't let up from the first page to the last. The writ... moreing is top notch as always, the characters and their stories become more and more interesting, especially Red Crow who is quickly becoming my favourite character for all his complexity. If you're a fan, you'll devour this book in one sitting like me and if you're reading this and you haven't discovered "Scalped" yet, start reading this series, it's an incredible action/drama story that deserves a wider audience.
review 2: Author Aaron keeps the pressure on, but also kills off a few mainstays of the story to date. It'll be interesting to see where this tale goes. As of this moment, I'm so up to date on this title that I'll have to bug my comics buddy for the single issues as he picks them up. This is the only downside to getting intensely interested in a graphic novel that began a few years earlier -- you rip though the trade paperbacks and their collected story arcs, and finally hit the spot where now you've got to wait a MONTH for each new bit. It hurts. less
