I have NEVER read a book so poorly edited. As I state in all my reviews when I comment about editing, I will only say something when it distracts from the story.  I could barely read this one because of a lack of it.  We're not talking about a few misspelled or missing words.  The entire book reads as a rough draft, that had the author taken the time to read before publishing, she would have caught many of them.  There are numerous times where the character's name change back and forth i.e Spirit Shadow changes to Two Spirit and Black Heart changes to Black Hawk.  The author often uses commas as a period, punctuation as a whole is incorrect or missing, excludes the "s" off of possessives i.e. Spirit Shadow' horse, and change and dialogue begins mid paragraph. Not to mention the constant misspelling or misuse of words- i.e. attacked became attached. There are spaces in the middle of words and no spaces between sentences.  But don't take me word for it, just do the "look inside" feature to see how poorly this piece was done- something I should have done first.The story itself was okay, but the way it was written with no editing caused me to lose interest.  It took twice as long to read as something that length normally would because of the errors and rereading to understand what she was trying to say. The only part that really stands out is the cabin inside the barn because I thought that was clever. If the author ever went back and took the time to clean up the story, I'd be willing to come back and change my rating, but until then, I just can't rate it any higher.
