I swear each of these books is better than the last. Since writing People of the Wolf new people have been discovered living in the area that is now Seattle--Caucasoid people. Where they came from is a mystery, but the bones were definitely dated to about 9000 BC, meaning both Mongoloid and Caucasoid people existed at that place and time. Using that discovery, the Gears come up with a whole new story focusing on suspicions these people might have of the other while able to see and understand the obvious similarities. Add serious climate change at the same time, and the story just gets better.
I have now started A Wrinkle in Time by Madeleine l'Engle. How I have missed this book, I have no idea, but I have indeed never read it. I have read the first two chapters and have met several most delightful characters.
