Rating:  - All things meet in the middle.
It is difficult to write an effective story that offers the reader entertainment as well as an opportunity to learn something. Linde Knighton has accomplished this with style in her historical short-novel of Emily and Sariah on their quest across a brave new land. Ms.Knighton has skillfully woven action, romance and mystery into highly satisfying pieces of Native American and Mormon cultures.
If this is a sign of what is yet to come from this author, we are in for a rare treat indeed.
Rating: - Before Our Journey's Through
Lindë Knighton brings alive the Old American West during the Mormon Diaspora. Her historical framework is detailed and vivid. Her characters are three-dimensional and she makes the reader care about what happens to them, heroes and villains alike. Plotting is brisk. Emily and Sariah are a dynamic pair who keep the reader's sympathy and attention. This reviewer hopes for at least a sequel.
