4.0 out of 5 stars Very Good, August 11, 2002

Kane (Perth, Western Australia) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Longtusk (Hardcover)

This book was equally, if not better than it`s prequel.After reading the first, I wasn`t to sure about reading the second after the first left me feeling pretty depressed, though I did it anyway and was greatly rewarded with a more upbeat book, compared to the first. Longtusk is better probably because of the less violence and a more descriptive plotline. The info on how the Mammoths live was riveting as was how they desribed the Neanderthals and early Homo-Sapiens.It was a great read.I eagerly await the third arriving.

5.0 out of 5 stars Sweeping, grand..., October 16, 2001

This review is from: Longtusk (Hardcover)

As good as Watership Down, Shardik or The Plague Dogs in detailed and accurate research on the part of the author, coupled with believable, fascinating, and often glorious storytelling.

This is the sequel to Silverhair, and in my opinion, excells it, though the first book it wonderful enough.
