I Bought the Book Purely for the Title
I stayed around for all the rest purely for the storytelling, even to the point of trying out snippets of gleaned Navajo on Navajo squadron mates. It would take onerous repetitions for me to get one word pronounced correctly. Ah, the diné ~ they came to life.
I LOVE Tony Hillerman. I'm sure even St. Peter will greet him with "Yá'át'ééh ak'is" and trickster Coyote will be laughing outside the pearly gates.

Tony Hillerman can weave a story like no one else. I discovered his books when I ran out of Graftons and Muellers, and when Clancy started getting paid by the word. He is a great read!
