I am always reading, and never the same genre. I thought it would be fun to share with you what I am reading and my thoughts about it all.

Song of the River by Sue Harrison
This is first the first book in a trilogy. Before this trilogy there was another one that was very good, so I am looking forward to seeing how this one plays out. This seems to be a later continuation of the first. The story takes place in 6450 B.C. and follows a few different tribes. It is interesting to see the different beliefs and customs they have and how it all differs even though they are so close in proximity to each other. Chakliux is one of the main characters and you see how he works to keep other tribes from fighting and how his physical difference cast suspicion's with others. The number of taboos and rituals that were to be followed to keep the spirits happy was challenging. I always enjoy reading about how people interact with others and how conflicts are put to rest. Harrison is very good at weaving a tale, even though she may get wordy at times. I am looking forward to seeing how all these tribes and people may or may not work things out.
