Trail of the Dead
Review
By The Horn Book Guide
Lozen (Killer of Enemies) leads refugees through the desert toward
Valley Where First Light Paints the Cliffs. They face many dangers, and
Lozen is afflicted with something her Apache-Chiricahua ancestors called
Enemy Sickness, or post-traumatic stress. The sardonic protagonist is as
magnetic, the peril as intense, and the invention as fresh as ever as
Bruchac develops his dystopian world in intriguing directions.
