Summary: AN UTTERLY COMPELLING STORY
Comment: In the third book of the Winona's Web trilogy, Priscilla Cogan has carried the thread of each of her characters and woven a spell-binding story of good overcoming evil. She doesn't shy away from the topic of evil, nor does she sugarcoat it. Even though it's impossible to stop turning pages, it's also difficult to read of such horror happening, let alone to characters we have come to care about. This is a thoroughly satifying conclusion to a wonderful series of books. I highly recommend Crack at Dusk: Crook of Dawn. Even though it stands on its own as a fine piece of writing, I suggest that you read all three books to gain the full impact.

Summary: Read this one!
Comment: Priscilla Cogan's extraordinary talents as a storyteller are once again both forcefully and subtly demonstrated in the Crack of Dusk: Crook of Dawn, the final book in the trilogy. The story of good vs. evil is both horrifying and gripping making it almost impossible for the reader to put the book down. As in the previous 2 books, the reader is given the opportunity to witness the intertwining of the healing traditions of the Lakota Sioux and Western psychological thought and the powerful effect it has on the life of a young Native American boy. The only recommendaton I would make to readers is to read the other books in the trilogy first so than one has a more complete understanding of the characters and Native American traditions.

Summary: The experience of life's reality
Comment: I read a few reviews and was tempted not to buy this book because of the negative feedback. I am glad I changed my mind because I am glad to have completed the ongoing story of Meggie and Hawk. It gave me quite a bit to think about with the story line of ritualist abuse. I did not find it offensive, I found it informative and it brought out love for a human being who overcame personal tragedy. I especially enjoyed how the contiuation of the Lakota ways were always there. It also brought in a lot of thought about other belief systems. The story is one of courage, hope, and faith. The love of a child and the ways of the spirts, helped Hawk to be strong and determined even when no one else believed in him. Meggie's unconditional understanding and her fears made the story believable. I recommend this book to anyone who has read the first two novels. You'd be missing out of a great story based on reality in fiction.
