5.0 out of 5 stars Compelling..Mesmerizing..a book not easily forgotten!, February 26, 1999
By A Customer
Reading the first three books of William Sarabande's American series, I am ready to pick up the next book and be enchanted again by such an author. He has created characters such as 'Torka' and his band who face the cruelties of an unknown land,the laughter and awed storytelling of long ago people and hunts,and the continuing love and devotion of Torka to allow every baby to stay alive including his own infant son. Following 'Life Giver',the largest mammoth of all,the totem of Torka,Lonit,and their children, into the forbidden land where no man has been before. Can the magic man,Karana,and son of Torka,keep these people well with his Seeing powers or will guilt eat at his spirit until he is dust on the wind? Read the American Series books for the most thrilling journey of all!

4.0 out of 5 stars Another great book in this series!, March 22, 2000
By A Customer
This review is from: Forbidden Land (Audio Cassette)
After reading the first book in this series, I immediately purchased the next three. The books are so good that I've been pacing my reading...I'll read one, then read something by another author or two and then read another. Why? Because I hate for the story to come to an end.

This book, like the previous two I've read, is very good. This author has an incredible ability to "paint" a picture of the characters and scenery that almost makes you believe you're there. You can almost feel the biting winter winds, as the characters trudge through the snow in search of food and shelter. You feel their pain and despair as they find themselves faced with cruelty from other people and danger from the elements and animals they hunt to live.

By the time you finish with the first of these books, you'll feel as if Torka and Lonit and the host of other characters are old friends.

And to make things even better, the author leaves you no time to get bored because there's always something going on...both good and bad.

Even though this type of novel (historical) is not the typical type of book I read, this series has left me hungering for more books covering this time period, or at a minimum, other authors with the writing talent that Sarabande has.
