review 1: I love how this book brings together the mythical stories and folklore of Native Americans. I did constantly have to get out my dictionary though, in order to look up words that were of the native language. I do believe this book was pretty true to form in representing Native Americans and I appreciate the fact that she is a total bad-ass in a dystopian world. I appreciated the fact that Bruchac constantly has Lozen centering herself and remembering to be thankful and grateful in times when most would not.
review 2: I found this an interesting read. The setting is in the future where the technology that we have built up no longer exists. Lozen has been trained and held on to her history and skills that her American Indian ancestors had. While those skills ma... morey have no place in our world today, in the future like that are laid out in the novel, her skills prove invaluable. I did also enjoy that, while this is a story about a possible future, there is American Indian history intertwined in it. This book would appeal to both males and female teens and young adults. I think that is has enough action for the boys but has a “badass” female main character that seems to be the trend now to empower young women. I also think that much of our entertainment media provide a guess of how a post-apocalyptic world would look like, so this falls in that line and would appeal to today’s young people. less
