Loved this very much, such intelligent and humorous writing. Time got away from me and I did not finish the book but I know I will one day soon.

This was a fantastic way to describe cultural appropriation. Thomas King loves mythopoeic storytelling. For me, he is like a quasi-cousin to Neil Gaiman in that he is an elemental world builder. He adeptly combines worlds and creates insight into the original ones. Thank you, Thomas.

Thomas King could write the most boring story I've ever heard and I'd thank him for it. (This is not that)

I don't know if I could explain what happened in the 429 pages of this book

One of the books assigned for my Canadian literature class in university, and it quickly became a favourite. I see new stuff every time I read this book. It's a good read all on its own, but has extra depth if you've done any type of Native American Studies course.

funny and wry while addressing issues of deep importance. I wish I had read this in a can lit class at some point. i would like to spend more time delving into the nuances.
