Review: An Outstanding Story with Excellent Survival Info
Rating: 5 out of 5

This survival book is the most optimistic and encouraging I have read.  At times it borders on utopian, but the Clan also takes their lumps from bad guys.  The people work hard, take care of each other, and establish a lasting community.  They also are blessed with excellent weapons and a very defensible valley with one limited entrance.  They manage to ambush or fight off multiple groups of bad guys.  In the process, I learned a lot about military tactics.  I also was impressed with how they helped people with huge emotional scars and adopted many orphans.  There are some slow spots that were overly descriptive of town layouts, etc.  But overall it was entertaining, caring, and informative.
