After signing up for the US army in the 1850s, barely seventeen, Thomas McNulty and his brother-in-arms, John Cole, fight in the Indian Wars and the Civil War. Having both fled terrible hardships, their days are now vivid and filled with wonder, despite the horrors they both see and are complicit in. But when a young Indian girl crosses their path, Thomas and John must decide on the best way of life for them all in the face of dangerous odds.

What a wonderful book. It took me a few chapters to get into the rhythm of the language but once there, Barry's narrative took me on the descriptive and cruel journey of Thomas McNulty right to the last chapter. Barry never fails to deliver.

Taking to the meet up.

Well that's one of the joys of Bookcrossing. I had never heard of this book or his author this morning, then saw it on the table, liked what I read on the back cover and now back home I read more about it and the author and I can't wait to get started!
