Time Traveling into the Land of the Natchez
- Book: Sacred Mounds – A Historical Fantasy
- Location: Mississippi, Natchez, The Hudson Valley
- Author: Jim Metzner
A good measure of an author is his or her ability to take you into another world, and feel like you are really there. By that measure, author Jim Metzner succeeds beautifully. His characters time travel between the land of the Natchez hundreds of years ago and present day America, and it’s all wrapped up in the spirituality of the Natchez, where not only is time travel possible, but so is ESP and mind control. The leader believes this is all possible because the characters believe it is possible. The characters are real and likable (my favorite is the woman “Tell Me a Story”), and the reader gets caught up in their stories. There were times where I didn’t care for his “head-jumping” POV, but that is simply my style preference. Bottom line: Jim is an excellent story teller.
Please wait...
