White Sky, Black Ice
The book was compared to Tony Hillerman's books about Native American life involving a mystery. I enjoyed this book about Alaskan life and thought processes. An interesting mystery in a native Alaskan town.
White Sky, Black Ice
This is an interesting book about a part of America that many of us know little about, the Arctic. It slowly and creatively opens up a murder mystery while also gradually sharing an Eskimo culture little known outside of Alaska. This all is done with a down-to-earth attitude and sense of humor that I found appealing. It also deals with complex social, economic, and ecological issues in a straightforward manner. It's a good read that left me wanting more.

I think this is a wonderful book and I plan on reading the whole series, just as I do with Dana Stabenow, Sue Henry and John Straley. I learned a lot about Inupiak culture while enjoying a good mystery, and I am working on shaman Pass right now.
