perhaps the best of the trilogy! river's sections are good, but priors sections are fascinating. i understand that they need to balance eachother out--especially for the extended comparison of the so-called "savagery" of the indigenous peoples with the actually savageness of war--but river's sections lost me a bit, and i frankly could have enjoyed prior's story by itself. his simultaneous evolution and degredation throughout the trilogy is truly captivating, though quite grim.
