I have read all of the Five Ancestors Books to date and really enjoyed them all. This one was no different. I actually thought this would be the end to the series...but....guess what! The story is an easy, enjoyable read. It is a good book with a little hint of romance between Hok and the Dutchman (maybe?). Lots of action and intrigue to keep you going and I can't wait for the next installment. The writing is tight and easily understandable even though it is explaining customs that the characters are tied to, it's never done in a boring way and I have to say you never really know what is coming next. However, we will be able to find out in February 2009 Five Ancestors #6: Mouse (5 Ancestors).
