5.0 out of 5 stars A moving and heart rending novel, February 19, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Let the Drum Speak (Paperback)
Having just finnished this book when i really should have been writing my thesis all i can say is that heck i'm glad i did!! After tentative beginnings i began to wonder weather the novel would hold up without Kwani the previous main character, but it developed into truly one of the best books i have ever read. I laughed and cried but above all i was swept back to that ancient and sometimes savage world with such ease. i could not put this book down and when i finnished it i did so with a great sadness that no further novel awaits me to carry on the saga. Escapist maybe, but truly a magnificent sweeping saga of immense magnitude...Read it!!

5.0 out of 5 stars The Best, August 10, 2000
By 
gloria reed (Las Vegas, Nevada (USA)) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Let the Drum Speak (Paperback)
I really enjoyed your book and bought one for my 14 year old niece for her birthday - she is an avid reader and completed the book from start to finish without putting it down. She wanted to know when the next book would be out, I re-assured her that when it does I will be the first in line to buy two. I am a Navajo woman with two models, should you ever need models for your book, give us a call. I will get your address and mail you some photos. Thanks for writing about Native people. Call me at 702-870-1471 or email me. I look forward to our contact. May the Great Spirits bless you in a very good way.

4.0 out of 5 stars very good, very worth it!, July 20, 1998
By A Customer
This review is from: Let the Drum Speak (Paperback)
i read this book about two years ago as soon as it came out. I loved shular's two previous books and although this one wasn't quite as fantastic as they were, this one is still a must read. As with shuler's other books you'll feel connected to Antelope and the other characters and when reading feel like your back in pre-columbian america living right beside them. Linda Lay Shuler is an exceptional author and I sincerely hope she continues to write on this subject! I start college in the fall majoring in archaeology. With due credit given to author Sue Harrison whose books introduced me to the field of native american archaeolgy, Shular's books have steered me to a hopeful career in southwest archaeology.
