This review is from: Ghost Dance (Paperback)

I was very surprised at finding this book as had never heard of it before by Mr. Norman. I have read a couple of the Gor books, and they are their own genre, this is a totaly different expereince. While there are some of the same themes as in the Gor novels he is known for, this book has more than the Dominant male, female submissive overtones. Set in the Dakotas during the last decade of the 1800's, on the reservations and lands of the Native American Indians, it is very historical in nature, and you get caught up in the story, in the characters. Mr. Norman has in this book captured some of the feel of what that tenuous time in this country's history was like, especially between the Indians trying to save their people and culture, and the soldiers of the US government ordered to stamp it out. While probably not completely historically accurate in the details and plot line, it is an intriguing read.
