People of The Moon

I enjoyed every moment of the reading of this book. I found it interesting and hard to put down until I had completed it . I have read all of the First American Series by the Gears and will continue to do so as soon as the new ones come out in paper back . The whole series is well worth the price for anyone interested in thier interpretation of how the first native peoples in the Amerca's loved ,lived and died .

Lynn's Review

Have been buying the First North Americans series for my adult daughter. She has encouraged me to read them also. We are both pleased with Michael & Kathleen Gear's series. Nicely written. It holds one interest and invites you to read and re-read each book.

One of their best!

I first discovered this series back when I was in high school, and have kept up with it ever since. I have read all of the books in this series, and this is one of my favorites. The Gears write in such rich detail it is just like being there sharing each experience the characters have. I love getting lost in their books. If you have read other books in this series, you must read this one too. If you have never read any of these books, what are you waiting for?!

one of the best so far!!

this is a wondeful book. probly the gear's darkest so far. i recomend this book to any gear fans specaily if you have read Slience and Anasazi Triogy series becuse MOON connects all these storys together. great read!!!!!

A wake up call about the Anazasi...

Where to begin? This book is the final puzzel peice that ties the People of the Silence and The Anazasi Mystery Series together. We discover how the White Moccasins were created, and how the First People fall. This book was a wake up call for me. I knew the Anazasi were not the most peaceful people, but I enjoyed the romantic myth that they were. Kathleen and Michael O'Neal Gear told the truth, and as usual, it was wonderful. It was probably the most graphic of their books, and not for a weak stomach. This book made me laugh, and it made me cry... the best way to judge a good book for me. It was deffinatly more descriptive than the rest of their books, I almost felt like I was reading a Jean M. Auel book in the begining, but it made the Anazasi world real for me, and it does lessen. It comes to such a climax that you cannot put the book down. I would recomend this book to those who have at least read People of the Silence, it is the continueing story, and also to those who have read The Anazasi Mystery Series. It is almost like the Star Wars movies... we see the end before the begining, and this book is the final peice. But in total, any one who is a fan of the genre will enjoy this book. I also recomend that anyone who reads this, read the Forward at the begining. The authors have told you the names of the real sites they used in the book, and the discoveries made there. They have some interesting thoughts that are worth reading as well.
