review 1: This second book in 'The People of the Longhouse' quartet is another winner and is as good as the first one. It starts the same day the other book ends so the story continues without interruption. The characters and setting are very vivid in these books. Some new characters appear in this book as well as several from the first book who are important to the overall story line. I am enjoying this quartet and look forward to the next book. These books are an interesting telling of the story of the founding of the League of Iroguois and the struggles and warfare that led up to it. Highly recommended.
review 2: This was a thrilling, edge of your seat, can't put it down because you need to see what happens on the next page type of book. If I could give it six stars ... moreI would. I'm a big fan of the Gears and their Native American books but the People of the Longhouse series is fantastic. I am excited about the third book in the series which is coming out in Jan. 2012. I may pre-order it so I have it right away. The idea of the series is to give a possible explanation for the beginning of the Iriquois nation which was the basis for the United States. So it's an important story and one that needs to be told. This book and the previous one, "The People of the Longhouse" give a plausible, mesmerizing story for the genesis of the Iriquois nation. It's definitely a six star book! I highly recommend it. less
