Another very excellent chapter in this story and I was surprised to hear Miguel introduce him as Soni's boyfriend. I know he's a bad guy and I hope they figure it out before it's too late. Great work.

Hi
This is an excellent chapter.
I enjoyed reading it very much.
The unique ways you are
incorporating the use of animals
makes the story all the more
interesting. It draws
the reader into the piece.
The character development
is very well done.
It seems to add
to the flow of the write
as a total work.
The descriptive scenes work
well with the story line.
Excellent use of a cliff hanger.

Nice cliffhanger. I am curious what a "false dawn" might be. Even though I haven't read the other parts of the book, I could tell that it is an interesting tale. I thought it was pretty informative about Shamanism and it seems you hold some of that knowledge dear to your heart. I enjoyed this. Thank you for sharing.

Thank you for the kind review. False dawn is just before the sun rises.
Comment from Sefiros
I found the part between Jim and Miguel a little lacking. You could have mentalized Jim's reaction with a little shock. Boyfriend? Since when. You could have Jim force a smile and pretend to be friendly while he's burning up inside. You could even have Jim size Miguel up: he's too short for Soni, etc. I think that would solidify Jim into a more realistic figure. Otherwise good job.

Thank you for the kind review. Jim already suspects Miguel of wrong doings.

Hi Barbara, been gone for a while but I went back and caught up.
See you have built up a great following, don't know but I would say that yours is either close to or the longest running story on FS.
Excellent dialogue, and plenty of action that kept the story moving. Also liked the bear interlude, interesting twist.
Very good narrative!

Comment from Dawn Munro
Ah, Barbara, this is another very interesting post, especially with the tidbits of information added that most readers wouldn't know, like the herb, "forb". I also especially like the other little details you include - they add realism - for example, Alex passing around some gum.

Hi, Barbara. Good to see you post again. As usual, your dialogue and images are spot on for the most part:
"Calming herbs for Soni or her grandfather?" After Alex smiled at Jim's question, Jim continued, "I've never seen the dogs so calm or Midnight. I guess it's working on them too. It seems like Soni told me once that Kuruk means bear. Am I right? "
Suggestion: "As they got closer they slowly swished their tails. " (I would eliminate the word "slowly" here for two reasons...one, it is not important how fast they did it and two, you always want to eliminate the dreaded "ly" words like slowly.
Good write, my friend. Bob
