AND...
My review of The Quest for Home-Jacqui Murray
5 out of 5 stars.★★★★★
This story takes place where Survival leaves off. Xhosa and her people are on a quest for a new home. She has a small tight group, including a wolf, that she can depend on. Xhosa leads with compassion and courage. Her goal: keep her people safe. The odds are stacked against her, weather, rival bands and worst of all betrayal from an unexpected source, still she perseveres.
Murray has created a story rich in history and has built a solid world with a colorful cast of characters. I found myself rooting for the protagonists and hoping the villains got their comeuppance.
I can’t begin to imagine the hours of research, not to mention the actual writing time, that went into this wonderful gem of a story. I highly recommend this book. It’s a must read for those who love prehistoric fiction.
Available at Amazon.

It sounds like a story ready to be a movie! Happy weekend all. 😊
Hope you have a wonderful weekend. The heroine is a strong one and congrats on the book Jacqui. I had my biopsy today....can I say this was one of the most painful days I have experienced. I think it was the meds they gave me that made me feel like my sides were being stretched on the rack. The actual biopsy was 10 seconds of hell. I thought I could go back to work...um....that’s a big no. I am finally feeling better now so will be able to sleep. I won’t know the results until October 27th. At least it’s over with and I am going to enjoy the weekend
Oh craps...happy birthday to your brother!
Loved the review and also I wish your brother a Happy Birthday.
Yvonne.
Sandy really captured my book in this review. Well done! Thanks for visiting!
I didn't think biopsies were that painful. Yuck! I hate pain! I'm glad you're finally feeling better.
Definitely the type of thriller you wonder how the heroes will survive. Thanks, Sonya!
Yay, Val. The first is great and the second even better.
Hope you don't have to work this weekend, Pat.
It is a winner indeed:)
