Summary: Bone Walker
Comment: I found the book very frightning and hard to put down. If you are a Gear fan, it is a must read.

Summary: Could it possible be so disappointing?
Comment: After reading the first two books, I really had hopes that Book 3 would tie things together and get better. Obviously this is a "beach book", but not even a good one. It did improve to a certain extent; the grammar and spelling were greatly improved. Unfortunately, it lacked something, and was fairly predictable. I was disappointed with the trite, "old" excuse of Dusty's mother acting like a... so that's why she was a "bad" person, and made his life miserable, and every other male she came in contact with, ya da, ya da. Original, this isn't. In fact, I got pretty sick of all the whining. The Anasazi story wasn't bad, but the descriptions of the black ebony hair, etc. etc. finally got to me. If you want to read it, don't pay for it.

Summary: Just the Book for a Long Fall Evening Before Halloween
Comment: I definitely would not advise anyone to start reading this series with this book. There is a lot of backstory and while the authors do a good job with weaving explanations in the text, there were times when I found myself asea about certain points dealt with in the earlier books. However, I read the two previous novels and I was delighted to find this one.
Moving in time between American Pre-history and the present, the authors touch on nearly every major controversy about the Anasazi, past and present. Vicious scholarly infighting is contrasted against the swing of war clubs. As the suspense builds, the authors do a good job at showing how the investigative skills of archaeologists are not that different from that of law enforcement (whether in the past or present)-- both are attempting to reconstruct past actions and draw conclusions about the actors.
Definitely recommended for a reading on a chilly evening with a pot of hot coffee and a few biscotti on a tray.
