Summary: Buzzard's Feast -- An Exciting Read
Review: I gave this book 4 stars because it was exciting with something always happening. Lots of suspense. A real page-turner. You really get to know and understand the characters. It has a touch of humor but not silly. I didn't give it 5 stars because I didn't think it was as good as Gator Prey -- not as descriptive and the characters in Gator Prey were more fun. I like animals and Gator Prey had more animals in it.
