I read this book when it first came out, but never got around to finishing the trilogy because at the time I had no idea it would be a trilogy. So I decided to read the entire series back to back to back so that I didn't forget key characters and plot points. I am not disappointed that I reread this book.
This was a good fictional account of "manifest destiny"; the descendants (white men) wanting to conquer and control the land of the natives. I particularly enjoyed the Native American folklore in this book and enjoyed reading about their spirit animals and how they are used to help their people. I'm looking forward to reading the next book in this trilogy, Voice of Crow.

Loved it, loved it and loved it!
Eyes of Crow grabbed me and wrapped its pages around my mind and my heart and I never wanted it to let go but like all good things, there comes an end but wait… there is a second book. YAY!
There was so much to love about this story. The characters were wonderful and easy for me to understand and connect with. There was an array of different relationships including a very interesting love triangle. The spiritual aspect fascinated me to the point where I just couldn’t get enough of it.
I do admit it was a little predictable at times but it didn’t become a problem due to the amazing writing of Jeri Ready-Smith and all the wonderful things I just mentioned.
I recommend this book to anyone who is interested in exploring a very different world with many wonderful things. I can’t wait to get wrapped up in the pages of the second book (voice of Crow)

Oh, how I loved this world, where people were in contact with the spirit world, and each person had an animal spirit to guide them, and to help others.
Rhia is truly an extraordinary young woman! She was afraid of her gift, and had to deal with the guilt that came because of it. However, when she finally chose to embrace it, she showed both strength and weakness, confidence and insecurity. And she continued to be true to herself as she grew.
I loved how she was with Arcas, but was even happier with how she develped and became more mature, and loving with Marek.
Her relationships with others were like they are for actual people as well, sometimes, we are scared when we meet new people, and JSR really coined that awkwardness that can arise when we move to a new place.
The war scenes were truly amazing, I felt like I was running around with Rhia when the fighting was at its' peak, and I was searching for Marek with her.
I am now on my way to amazon to get the next installment for my kindle - presto!
