Cry of the Wind : Book Two of the Storyteller Trilogy

Rating:
Summary: Wonderful Read!
Review: This book is a great sequel to "Song of the River". It is very well written and so engrossing that I finished it in just 2 days! Her characters have depth and reality- you can relate with them and their joys and sorrows. One of the reasons I like to read Sue Harrison's books is for her true potrayals of human behaviors with their strenghs and their weaknesses. Too many times authors write their characters as being "perfect" with nothing but positive things happening to them. Sue's stories are beautiful and believable. You will feel like you know her characters and will miss them when you have to put the book down! I am anxiously awaitng to read the third book in her trillogy! Thank you Sue!

Summary: Excellent followup to and better than Song of the River.
Review: This book picks up where Song of the River left off. Chakliux and his brother Sok have decided to live in the Cousin River Village after it lost the battle with the Near River Village. Aqamdax, whose heart belongs to Chakliux, is married to the one-armed Night Man. This book is action-packed with so many deaths and near-misses you get dizzy, and a great surprise "murderer" at the end. This book is for the thinker though. There are so many characters and story lines--which is exactly what I like in a good story--that make this book a fun challenge. Only one "foreshadowing" seemed a bit contrived--the doubt raised about whether Red Leaf was Day Woman's killer. Thanks to Sue Harrison for another great book!
