The author writes very well, the characterizations are effectively drawn and the flashbacks are integrated so that the book flows smoothly and is a pleasure to read. The plot has, however, substantial holes in it, which the author cleverly glosses over. The book is more like a morality play: good (nature-loving First Nations) vs. evil (white capitalists). The book is also implicitly anti-science. One should keep in mind That science and technology has extended our life expectancy tremendously, provided us with ample food and other goods, enriched our lives by communications and entertainment (including this book).
