"I started this series on the Anasazi when I went to Abiqui(sp?)NM and found it in a bookstore. The writing is quite clever focusing on a murder that took place 800+ years ago w/present day archaeologists that have dug up the bones and try to solve the mystery. The writers go back and forth so u actually understand what happened and see if the archaeologists can put all the facts together."
"So far, I'm enjoying this book, except that I think the authors created a male protagonist who makes statement far too stupid to fit his educational background. Would an eminent archeologist truly not know the difference between "prostrate" and "prostate"?"
"I recommend all the Kathleen O'Neal Gear and W. Michael Gear books for their readibility and historical content. Especially the Anasazi series, The Visitant, The Summoning God and Bone Walker. (For background on these three, read People of the Silence and People of the Moon first.)"
