BOOK: A way of his own by Dyer

[Frederick Muller <fmuller@TELLURIAN.NET>]

Dyer, T.A._A way of his own._Houghton Mifflin, 1981
[0-329-02690-9]
Shutok is a crippled young man in a nomadic Native American and
when his tribe must move on, they leave him behind to die.  A slave
girl runs back to help him out.  They survive a terrible winter in a
cave and end up killing a terrible man eater (leopard.)  When the
tribe returns from the winder wandering will the two loners be able
to earn back the respect of the tribe even though they did not follow
"the way."  The first half of this 154 page book is slow and tedious
but after that the reader gets involved with the winter survival, the
killing of the leopard, and the confrontation with the tribes.  If the
reader can make it through the slow first part, he/she will enjoy the
book.
