I very much enjoyed this podiobook and would love to hear the sequel.By: Mike
I listed to a couple episodes, and then stopped listening from lack of interest. There were a few things about this story that bothered me. First, I thought the level of techno detail was too much, and detracted from the story. Second, I found the whole premise that the Native American tribal customs and cultures had been restored somehow wasn't all that credible. I also found the voice and audio quality distracting. I found myself rewinding and relistening several times, which was too much work. While I found the description and plot line intriguing, it didn't work for me. Keep trying!!!By: Polar Bear
I'm Native American (Navajo) and I think the author doesn't know much about Indians. I got turned off after the first few chapters. It bugged me how these future people are grouped by tribe and that all of one tribe have the same characteristics and specialties. It reminds me of how tribes were forced onto reservations and set apart from the larger society. Would British, Germans, French, etc. be treated in the same manner as the premise in this book?
