Demian's Thoughts: |
It is from this book that I learned, quite early on, that a young time traveler armed only with a pumpkin can easily defeat a powerful Mohawk warrior. Interesting. I also learned that the series editor wasn't paying a lot of attention with regard to redundancy -- this book features a short trip to the Boston Tea Party very similar to a scene in the previous adventure! These bits of silliness aside, though, it's not a bad book. The choices are more interesting than usual for the series, and while I wouldn't want to vouch for its historical accuracy without doing quite a bit of research first, it does manage to throw some interesting tidbits about Iroquois life into its storyline. It also has a more fantastic feel than I would have expected -- if you feel that these books are too dry and reality-based (which I don't... but some might), this could well be a good one to try. |
