"I just finished Tony Hillerman's last book, "The Shape Shifter" and I feel so much sadness knowing this is the last I will read of Jimmie Chee and Joe Leaphorn.
This was great story of changing identity and I loved the ending. I just wished that there had been more about Jimmie and Bernie."
"I liked the way the writing in this book helped me visualize what was happening. I felt like it transported me equally well to the less exciting scenes (like the one in which Leaphorn solves part of the mystery while watching the 10:00 news) and to the action-packed scenes. Unfortunately, the author "let the cat out of the bag" way too early; it was readily apparent who the bad guy was by just a few chapters in. But what it lacked in suspense it made up for in finely crafted imagery."
"A friend loaned me The Shape Shifter-Hillerman's latest in the Leaphorn/Chee books. I was grateful for the loan because I long ago gave up buying Hillerman books. I refuse to waste my money on what has become a downward spiral of what at one point were good books by Hillerman. With some authors it becomes obvious they continue to pump out books for the mere sake of "getting one to the publisher", such is the case with Hillerman. This story as described by other reviewers is just not that interesting, contrived and sloppy. If you must read it, wait until someone loans it to you or you can get it at the library."
"Took a little while to get into this one -- it was my first Hillerman novel and I listened to it while driving to/from Cedar City. I learned some interesting facts about Navajo folklore & mysticism, but was a little disappointed that you pretty much knew all along who the bad guy was and how he pulled off his crimes. But I liked it enough that I'm giving another Hillerman novel a try at the moment."
