Thank you to NetGalley for providing a review copy. 

Ambitious in scope, this is a mosaic novel that follows one Cherokee family from the late 1800s into the not-so-distant future. There were parts of the novel that really worked for me, and other that fell a little flat. But I feel like that's going to happen in a story with so many interlocking but disconnected parts. The illustrations are absolutely beautiful and added a nice preface to each story. 4.25 stars
