Rating: Summary: Good Review: This is a good book. True Son, originally John Butler, faces many difficult challenges as he is forced out of his beloved Native American lifestyle into the strange world of the whites.The third-person point-of-view is just perfect, and the awesome conclusion is leaves you something important to think about. Light in the Forest opens up your eyes, and makes you more aware of the ancient struggle back then between the conflicting Indians and settlers.
Rating: Summary: DEPRESSING, BORING Review: I was supposed to read this book and write an alternate ending for school! It's one of the worst stories ever!I hated the figurative language! ( Like the wind is my brother-in-law) It was boring and weird. But, at the end it did make me cry because I felt bad for John/ True Son. Don't read this book unless you like wasting time!
Rating: Summary: Horribly dull book that does nothing but drag on and on Review: Probably one the most boring and meaningless stories I have ever read. It's just a childish fight between Indians and White Men that in the end proves nothing. If you wanna hear about Indians scalping white men and white men hunting down and shooting Indians, then for sure, read this book. Its about a white boy who was kidnapped by Indians when he was a baby and then raised by those Indians. Then he is forced to return to live with his white family and hates them, thus resulting in scalping, hate, depression. Those are usually things that make a book good, but in this case, they tear it down and kill it.
Rating: Summary: Absolutely Horrendous Review: The Light in the Forest was the worst book I have ever read. The book is boring and wordy and the lack of action is unacceptable. I had to read this book for class and I barely had the patience to get past the first page, let alone the entire book. I would reccomend this book only to Seven Years War afficienados with nothing better to do!
