Customer Review: I loved all the books in the Valor series and Valor's Trial was just as much fun as the others. This one brought in some new characters, introduced us to soldiers from the "Others" and brought explanations for the war.

Customer Review: This gem of a book approaches all of its subjects with deep humanity and keen intelligence. Some of Greer's conclusions will inevitably be controversial, given the subject matter. But having read dozens of academic history books on natives and Europeans, I know of only a few that unfold with such... more info
Customer Review: Well, this is a little tough to review because it was not the easiest read. So, unless you really love the sea and stories about tough men working in the scariest of environments, you will have a tough time finishing this book. However, Farley Mowat does capture the essence of what it was like for... more info
