Talks Like Thunder -

Talks Like Thunder by Randal Nerhus

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I had the pleasure of reading Talks Like Thunder and never realized it was a genre or subject that I would connect with. I haven’t read books discussing Native American struggles, but I’ve watched Hollywood movies that sensationalize the journey and history.

Randal’s book takes you on a journey. I felt it did not sensationalize but gave raw, intimate details and made you understand the pain and destruction that the whole culture of people went through simply because they existed and were different than what their occupiers were used to.

I felt like I was going through this journey with the main character, and I couldn’t put the book down once I picked it up. I am pleased that a writer is utilizing the speech that the culture would use and making it authentic to the Native American culture.

Bravo on a fantastic book that truly captures the essence of an entire culture that does not get enough focus.
