Good Story and rich narrative,

This review is from: The Raider (Mass Market Paperback)
Not without its faults, this book tells a moving and interesting story -- and I think it does so in an original way.

Groping for literature...,
By A Customer
This review is from: The Raider: A Novel of the Tennessee Frontier and the Civil War (Hardcover)
This book tries hard to be literary and just misses. It starts very slowly -- the very beginning, in which Elias builds a homestead in the deep woods, is interesting, but then it gets slow with the exception of one scene of really disturbing violence. Eventually, the Civil War starts, and while those scenes aren't badly done, I was put off by the fact that Elias' big action scene is stolen straight out of the life of Nathan Bedford Forrest. The writing here is decent, and it certainly isn't a *bad* book, but there are so many others out there that are better that it probably isn't worth seeking out.
