Historia
Fifteen-year-old Will Braddock works as a hunter for his uncle's survey team as the transcontinental railroad extends across Wyoming in 1868. Paddy O'Hannigan is determined to get even with those who caused the death of his father—which means Will, his uncle, and former slave Homer Garcon. And Paddy has other nefarious designs: he intends to blow up presidential candidate Ulysses S. Grant's train on the general's campaign trip into Wyoming.

This story can’t he missed
Revisado: 04-22-24
Loved the way all of the characters come to life!! This situation has probably played out just like this hundreds of times! Every character and their stories were believable and full of life! The author does an excellent job of bringing in Fabiola’s religious beliefs and concepts throughout the story! I couldn’t put it down!!

Get to know the full story
Revisado: 04-05-23
This book is thought provoking! We think we know the story of the crucifixion of Jesus, but this takes us soooo much deeper! There is so much symbolism in His story that many of us miss, but it’s all discussed in this concise book!! It should be part of any serious study of Jesus life, and especially during Lent!!

This was my first Koontz story! Kept me on the edge of my seat! You hated the evil guys; they were evil personified! Koontz can describe every nuanced detail of people and setting! You feel as though you’re right there although it’s so scary and horrific that you don’t want to be!

What a story!
Revisado: 05-15-20
This was a superb depiction of what it really means to make the treacherous trip North! A good look into events and experiences that compel a person to leave everyone and everything to start a new life ! The author gives a glimpse into what it takes to endure the horrendous trip to America. This should be a must read for everyone working at the border and the rest of us who have a say in laws that are passed regarding citizenship and how migrants are treated in our country!

A very poignant look into the lives of real WW II heroes and the horror of war
Revisado: 03-01-20
Every adult should read this book so that we never forget what can happen when life is devalued, one man wants to be a Demi god and conquer the world and people fail to stand up for what they know is right! Very touching and detailed story and a very good look at what real life is like during war and the atrocities that were committed! And the story of what a few brave and committed people can do! Excellent and believable narration!!

Historia
In Amanda Skenandore's provocative and profoundly moving debut, set in the tragic intersection between white and Native American culture, a young girl learns about friendship, betrayal, and the sacrifices made in the name of belonging. Told in compelling narratives that alternate between Alma's childhood and her present life, Between Earth and Sky is a haunting and complex story of love and loss, as a quest for justice becomes a journey toward understanding and, ultimately, atonement.

Revisado: 09-01-19
What a heart wrenching story of the treatment of Native Americans. This story shows what atrocities can be committed when people are totally devalued. We must take steps to ensure such treatment is never again allowed and perpetuated!! Everyone needs to read this book and ask yourself who were the true civilized people!!!
