OK my inner 80's kid was jumping up and down repeatedly. TMNT, Chitty, HP, all in one book!?! One word. PERFECTION!THIS IS THE BOOK I have been waiting for! This was such a wonderful read. This book has everything I could have possibly wanted, mini squee moments, and a few laugh out loud parts too! Wonderful plot, wonderful characters, and just a great read.... I am SO excited to read the next in this series! On to the next...And one more thing.... am I the only one that wants some one to say 'semi phenomenal, nearly cosmic powers?' or is it just me? The Walker Papers will only disappoint when they end with Shaman Rises. I hope C. E. will dip into the world she has created once in a while to entertain us.Joanne hears her father his missing and heads back to the Qualla, where she has not been since she was a teen. So much has been told and hinted about, now much is resolved. Not neat, tied with a bow resolved but processed and dealt with resolved, much like real life would be if we but would...A malevolence has aimed itself at her and hers. She and they are a threat to it, so she must face her demons and her fears, as well as her limitations and her understanding of what and who she is. It is well written, easy to follow, realistic (within reason, after all) and concludes with a meal to be envied!No spoilers, as I don't do that. I will only say that much will be answered. But do read "No Dominion" before the next (and last) of the Walker Papers comes out in December!Thank you again, C. E.!
What do You think about Mountain Echoes (2013)?
Love this series! I'm going to be so sad when it ends...
