Meld je aan bij LibraryThing om erachter te komen of je dit boek goed zult vinden. Op dit moment geen Discussie gesprekken over dit boek. A fairly unique setting—dystopian Navajo lands isolated from a world almost totally destroyed by flooding. Some interesting characters—humans who manifest archetypal powers of their clans, immortals such as Coyote and Neizghání. However, the plot was only so-so. It started quite well, but then devolved into an ending that was only half-explained and half-resolved. It felt like the author suddenly started rushing rather than continuing the nice pace of the first ninety percent of the story. Subsequent volumes may flesh it out, but it left this first in the series wanting. geen besprekingen | voeg een bespreking toe

While most of the world has drowned beneath the sudden rising waters of a climate apocalypse, Dinaetah (formerly the Navajo reservation) has been reborn. The gods and heroes of legend walk the land, but so do monsters. Maggie Hoskie is a Dinaetah monster hunter, a supernaturally gifted killer. When a small town needs help finding a missing girl, Maggie is their last best hope. But what Maggie uncovers about the monster is much more terrifying than anything she could imagine. Maggie reluctantly enlists the aid of Kai Arviso, an unconventional medicine man, and together they travel the rez, unraveling clues from ancient legends, trading favors with tricksters, and battling dark witchcraft in a patchwork world of deteriorating technology. As Maggie discovers the truth behind the killings, she will have to confront her past if she wants to survive. Geen bibliotheekbeschrijvingen gevonden. |

Tiene muy buen ritmo, me ha enganchado con facilidad y le he cogido cariño a los personajes. La ambientación me ha encantado, y tiene mucha facilidad para crearte imágenes mentales de los escenarios y las situaciones. Pero hay un par de cosas, sobretodo hacia el final, que no me han convencido.
Aún así, tengo ganas del segundo y de ver como evoluciona la historia de Maggie. ( )
