Having just finished the book The Holy Road which is the sequel to Dances with Wolves, it was interesting how well Tracie Peterson in The Coming Storm gives a different perspective about the same time period. I like historical novels that are so true to the time they are written about. I also liked how various family members were again included in the story such as re-introducing Trenton Chadwick in a greater role. Diane is truly a woman of faith and courage as she continues to face life on the frontier. This is not a 'happily ever after' kind of series so it's refreshing and encouraging to read how one woman faces all of these adversities in her life. Looking forward to reading the third book.
I am reading the 4th and last Heirs of Montana books and have loved all four. I am about half way through the 4th one and am going to be sad when I finish. Have loved all the characters and stories involving all of them. I have read a lot Tracie Peterson books. She is one of my favorite Christian authors.
I usually love Christian fiction - but this one just overflowed with misery. I couldn't stand it.
I liked this book even better than the first...however not sure about the introduction of two new characters and then they just disappeared...didn't add anything to the book, other than dragging the story out a bit. Not so many people dying...in odd ways....was a lot little weary of that in the first book. All in all the title really does not describe the book. I enjoyed seeing how she brought the Lord into their lives....and how he is faithful, this book is definitely a nice witness to His love for us.
Well, book one was an introduction to the rest of the series, now the drama unfolds and the tears fall, and the waiting begins, while there are wars to be fought. Excellent second book in this series, starting book three asap.
I chose to rate this book with a 4 because yes it is a very good book but because it is part of a series some parts are left out. two I noticed was 1. Zane went back to be court martialed and gave this great speech but you have to guess at the results. 2. Portia and Ned got married and then they disappeared. unless something is written in the next book it left you hanging. I do love the way Tracie is able to write with a spiritual maturity that has me bookmarking pages to be able to go back and be inspired again. I recommend this book to believers in Christ as well as nonbelievers in hopes that they will be led to believe.
The story is excellent and the writing is good. This 5-star book will appeal to every adult except those adamantly anti-Christian, anti-black, or anti-Native American. David Carlyle, "Billy Thomas."
I started reading book 1 of this Montana Series and could not wait to start reading book 2. After reading this book I couldn't wait for book 3. I' m not sure where book 4 will take me, but these are Very interesting and terrific story lines.
