Winter FireI liked this book very much.  It is a story about a white child captured by Indians in the American Northeast 1800's and how that effects many lives. I appreciated the research that the author put into the customs of the era. I really loved Zara's Indian ways.  The story felt authentic and realistic in the mistrust, prejudice, misunderstanding, hurt, etc. between Whites and Indians.  It was sad but understandable that Ethan struggled and was resistant in his love for Zara.  Zara was almost too astounding, but I couldn't help but love her.  The characters were so well developed that I was sorry for the story to end.
