INTERMEDIATE FICTION
Durrant, Lynda

Turtle Clan Journey

(4) 4-6 The protagonist of Echohawk, a white boy raised by Mohicans, is returned to the home of a birth relative, where he chafes under the colonial way of life. Echohawk runs away and joins his Mohican father and brother as they travel to a new home and are captured by Iroquois. The pace lags during the latter half of the novel, and the Iroquois attack is anticlimactic, but the prose is solid.
