In The Holy Road, sequel to Dances With Wolves, master storyteller Michael Blake at long last continues the saga.

Eleven years have passed subce Lieutenant John Dunbar became Dances With Wolves and married Stands With A Fist, a white-born woman raised as a Comanche from early childhood. With their three children, they live peacefully in the village of Ten Bears. But there is unease in the air, caused by increased reports of violent confrontations with white soldiers, who want to drive the Comanches onto reservations.

Disquiet turns to horror, and then to rage, when a band of white rangers descends on Ten Bear's village, slaughtering half its inhabitants and abducting Stands With A Fist and her infant daughter. The three surviving great warriors - Wind In His Hair, Kicking Bird and Dances With Wolves - decide they must go to war with the white invaders. At the same time, Dances With Wolves realizes that only he can rescue his wife and child.

Told with the same sweep, insight, and majesty that have made Dances With Wolves a worldwide phenomenon, The Holy Road is an epic story of courage and honor.

A follow up to what happen to Dances with Wolves and family. Another chapter of history showing the demise of the Native Americans. Well worth the read.

This story takes place during the heartbreaking final years of the free Comanche. It continues the lives of the characters from Dances With Wolves. It has good insight into the dilemma and emotional trauma faced by the tribes whose home and way of life were under attack. It's a good story. Had a few issues with writing style and the end had an emotionally detached feel- like a recitation of facts- that I felt didn't do honor to the characters who we had come to care about.

If you liked the Book or movie of DWW’s, you’ll have a hard time putting this sequel down. You’ll know most of the characters. Mesmerizing, and goes along perfectly with one of the biggest black eyes in our history. When your history is great, the opposite has to be there as well. There’s no way it can’t be. Opposition is on all things. Great story.

Although there were times I couldn't turn the page fast enough, a lot of the book was confusing especially the end. I would ask the reader to stick with the original Dances With Wolves and stay away from this confusing and extremely sad body of literary work. Please trust me on this. Read at your own emotional peril.

I really enjoyed the movie Dances With Wolves...but I was sorely disappointed in the first book. It covered all the main points as the movie did but I felt the book itself was rushed and was actually poorly written. I was expecting the same from book two - The Holy Road - I was shocked to see the differences. It was almost as if different Authors had written them. This book was extremely well written. It sadly shows the demise of a great nation of people and the hardships and destruction they endured. It was a great surprise after part one of the series. Highly recommended reading and excellent work by the Author.

I enjoyed the book very much and read hoping to find out what happened to Dances With Wolves after reading the first book. There is a lot of history in the book though it isn’t meant to be. The book does make a point of both sides from an Indian and Army point of view but mostly gives the Indian point of view.

4.0 out of 5 stars SHAMEFUL
Reviewed in Spain on November 25, 2017

It's little wonder Hollywood have not made this book into a movie as they did with Dances With Wolves. If they had it would be to Amercans what Schindler's List is to Germans.

A country built on slavery and the anniahlation of the native population is to this day the embodiment of the cruel injustices of its socio-political systems.

America calling itself "leader of the free world" while it continues to repeat the mistakes of its brief and bloody history merely ilustrates a collective lack of consciousness, compassion and remorse.

The book is insightful, enlightening and sickening in equal measures. This is a book to educate not entertain, and, like Schindler's List it is too disturbing to return to again.

My verdict, excellent, why did they not make a film of the second book

Meiner Meinung nach ist dieses Buch, da es deutliche Gebrauchsspuren zeigt, etwas zu teuer. Leider ließ die Verpackung sehr zu wünschen übrig. Anstelle einer wattierten Versandtasche oder einem festen Karton wurde es lediglich in einem sehr dünnen Plastiküberzug geliefert!
Sehr zu loben ist allerdings die schnelle Lieferung noch vor Weihnachten.
