It reads like Crichton. It is a fun and fantastical story of real history and science with a bit of fudging around the edges.
My favorite character is either Little Wind or Edward the little brother. My favorite scene is toward the end when Johnson gets one last bamboozle because Emily is not who he thinks she is because why would you believe anyone in the literal Wild West boy

From an accuracy standpoint, it's a fascinating, well-researched read, but it fails to properly contextualize the practice of body mutilation that was mentioned within the text. <i>Bury My Heart at Wounded Knee</i> has more information.
Honestly feels as if the last quarter or so of the novel was stuck in a previous draft or ghost written.
