Sheranne (Germany) (2007/02/27): Navajo Tribal Police Lieutenant Joe Leaphorn successfully bridges the gap between a number of cultures in Dance Hall of the Dead, overcoming his own personal prejudices to do so. He treats all people with respect, and has learned the Navajo Way of adapting to changing circumstances without compromising his own culture. Having learned Navajo tradition from his grandfather, and Anglo culture through his education in anthropology at Arizona State University, Leaphorn can bring his knowledge of diverse cultural backgrounds to bear on whatever issues come before him.
Debi (USA: UT) (2008/06/21): I really enjoyed this read. It was fast, an easy read, and kept me wanting to get to the end to see why the two boys disappeared. Tony Hillerman is an awesome writer, especially if you enjoy reading about Native American traditions and folklore. A complete joy to read!
