Talks Like Thunder (Red With Native Blood Book 1) Audiobook by Randal Nerhus & Marjorie Carter – Review by Christina Ford

Talks Like Thunder by Randal Nerhus
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This is the story of Desert Flower, a young girl who is living through the worst horror in our native history. Set in 1871, her life as an Apache begins with losing both parents to smallpox. As she grows she survives through wars, boarding schools, reservations and famine. In spite of the hardships she was born into, she becomes a strong and proud young woman who fights to save her family, her tribe and her land.
This is a beautiful novella that only hints at the devastation inflicted upon our native tribes told through the eyes of an Apache teen. Family, honor and tragedy all form the development and growth of a girl to maturity. Five stars!
