Commentary During Books I Am Apache

A young woman seeks to avenge her brother's death by becoming an Apache warrior — and learns a startling truth about her own identity. After watching helplessly as Mexican raiders brutally murder her little brother, fourteen-year-old Siki is filled with a desire for vengeance and chooses to turn away from a woman's path to become a warrior of her Apache tribe. Though some men, like envious Keste, wish to see Siki fail, she passes test after test, and her skills grow under the guidance of her tribe's greatest warrior, Golahka. But Keste begins to whisper about Siki's father's dishonorable death, and even as Siki earns her place among the warriors, she senses a dark secret in her past — one that will throw into doubt everything she knows. Taking readers on a sweeping and suspenseful journey through the nineteenth-century American Southwest, Tanya Landman draws on historical accounts to imagine the Black Mountain Apache as a tribe in a fight for survival against the devastating progress of nations.

Discuss Based On Books I Am Apache

I read this when i was about 18 and loved it at the time. As far as i can remember it was very thought provoking, forces you to empathise, very sweet but very sad.

I really wanted to like this book. In terms of writing style, it was very good. However, the authors statement in the back of the book leaves much to be desired:"I've tried to be authentic as far as period detail goes, but at times I have had to stretch things in order to make the story work. If there are mistakes, I apologize."Holding a bachelor's in history, I find this statement insulting. Authors should always be accurate. "Stretching" the facts to make the story work is not acceptable.

Different. Historical. Intriguing characters. Loved the writing too.

Damn that was good. The main character was well developed and I loved learning about the Apache way of life. Ive never read a fiction book that focus on Native Americans, so I was eager to read this. The fact that it was so well written helped! I hope she writes a sequel, as I really want to know what happens to Siki.

When I finished Buffalo Soldier by Tanya Landman I wanted to read more by this author so I picked up the ebook for Apache immediately, to impatient to wait for the 3-4 days it would take for a hard copy of the book to arrive.This book shares many similarities with Buffalo Soldier, a girl becomes a warrior, fights for freedom that will not come and like Buffalo Soldier the story also has little mysteries that surprised me.Apache tells the story of Siki, a young girl of an Apache tribe who sees

very good book. slow at the beginning but then it just got sadder and sadder at the ending. is there other books that go with this book
