I loved the premise of this book - a post-apocalyptic re-imagining of the Lewis and Clark saga - but it didn't quite live up to expectations. If you like post-apocalyptic stories, you'll enjoy this. If not, don't bother.
This is the best book I've read in years. A gripping espionage novel, and a powerful story of love and friendship. The narrator, a communist double agent, is a “man of two minds,” a half-French, half-Vietnamese army captain who arranges to come to America after the Fall of Saigon, and while building a new life with other Vietnamese refugees in Los Angeles is secretly reporting back to his communist superiors in Vietnam.
I loved this book. Set deep in the Appalachian wilderness between the years of 1779 and 1784, The Land Breakers is a saga of early America and the homesteading life. If you like historical fiction, this book is for you.
