Best and Worst part of "The Great Migration"

[Kathy-Smith]

In the first part of the book, navigating the new characters and trying to figure out how they fit into the overall narrative was a challenge, but in the end I loved the interwoven stories and character development. Where the S'orne come from is the biggest disappointment to me. I don't know what I was expecting or hoping, but it felt like a let down.

The worst part for me: there were too many characters, and often there were no connections between them. This made the story confusing at times. While reading I got lost a couple of times, thinking: is this part of the story happening in the same city?

The best part: I liked the way the author describes every scene, bringing them to life.

In my opinion, the best thing about this book is the action/fighting scenes. They are very detailed and unpredictable. It was very easy for me to get absorbed by them and to feel what the characters felt. The only thing I didn't like about this book is Luta getting infected and dying. I feel like his character had so much potential. He was a warrior and should have survived the S'orne attack.

I liked the suspense in the book most. The book's plot also intrigued me. King Cortez and his kingdom, the adventure of the Zuni, the s'ornes and their origin all made for a very good book. However, I didn't appreciate the book's setting. I felt like Bellona when Luta's title was stripped off him. I felt that it was unjustified.

I found nothing to dislike in the book. The characters are well-developed and the plot is also complex and packed with lots of action.

I enjoyed reading the book, so I can't pinpoint a specific part I found to be the best. However, I did enjoy the suspense-filled parts, like when Azanon was hiding in the clothing store. The worst part for me was when Luta's character was removed. I felt he was an integral part of the storyline.

The book's complex plot, though a strength, might also be challenging for readers who prefer more straightforward narratives. The intricate weaving of different storylines requires careful attention, which may not appeal to everyone.

One of the best parts in the book, "Great Migration" was when the dog Scout was running for his life. At first, Lacey could not find the dog, and he appears out of nowhere and runs toward Lacey and the family with the Barongs on his heels. The author's description in that moment was so detailed and clear to the imagination. I was happy when the dog Scout made it to safety. The worst part of the book is the beginning when the scene opens up describing the deceased bodies in the camp. This displayed fear, hurt and a great loss for the tribe.

The best part of "The Great Migration" is its deep dive into cultural stories and how people interact with nature, particularly showing the Zuni people as caretakers of the land. This aspect makes the story rich and engaging, drawing readers into both environmental and cultural discussions.

However, the worst part might be how the book simplifies complex social issues. Some parts, like the depiction of the Zuni culture based on myths, could be seen as not fully respecting the real depth and complexity of their traditions.

I appreciate the way the first few chapters of the book were structured like short stories, each introducing the different characters that would play a role in the overall plot. It was exciting to see how their stories would eventually intersect.

Losing so many characters unexpectedly was my least favorite part of the book. They all showed so much strength and bravery, and I found myself rooting for them, only to be disappointed when they didn't make it.
