The Killing of Greybird is a vivid, well-told saga of the lost days of pioneer Utah--of the effects of war and ethnic hatred on a society learning to live Christ-like lives. The characters of this novel reflects author Swedin's careful attention to human nature; his characters teach us by overcoming tragedy through the grace of the gospel.
In the unfolding story you'll discover a wonderful character, David Halliday, unravelling mystery through attention to human nature and observation--not through simple plot devices.
Reviews -
The Killing of Greybird is a history lesson, theological study, family saga, war novel, mystery, and heartfelt love story all in one, told in words and images as beautiful as any lyrical poem I've ever read. From the evocative opening scenes to the soul-satisfying final pages, this book touched me on many levels.
I read The Killing of Greybird in nearly one sitting and thoroughly enjoyed the book. In the end, I liked this book best because it sets up an ideal of how we all should live and then shows the very human way that we all fail to meet the ideal. The rich background of faith, western hardship, and Indian wars all provide a compelling environment for a great story.
