Özet
At the age of twelve, under the Wind Moon, Will is given a horse, a key, and a map, and sent alone into the Indian Nation to run a trading post as a bound boy. It is during this time that he grows into a man, learning, as he does, of the raw power it takes to create a life, to find a home. In a card game with a white Indian named Featherstone, Will wins - for a brief moment - a mysterious girl named Claire, and his passion and desire for her spans this novel. As Will's destiny intertwines with the fate of the Cherokee Indians, including a Cherokee Chief named Bear, he learns how to fight and survive in the face of both nature and men, and eventually, under the Corn Tassle Moon, Will begins the fight against Washington City to preserve the Cherokee's homeland and culture. And he will come to know the truth behind his belief that 'only desire trumps time'.

Brilliantly imagined, written with great power and beauty by a master of American fiction, Thirteen Moons is a stunning novel about a man's passion for a woman, and how loss, longing and love can shape a man's destiny over the many moons of a life.

Praise for COLD MOUNTAIN
A remarkable first novel, a romance of love, of friendship, of family, of land. Frazier has inhaled the spirit of the age and breathes it into the reader's being
Cold Mountain is a heartbreakingly beautiful story, elegantly told and utterly convincing down to the last haunting detail
Full of graphic, unflinching details, striking concrete images and lyrically precise descriptions of the natural world, this wonderful novel presents the terrible, discordant reality of life in a war. Profoundly moving, it raises all the big questions

I chose this book because I had read Cold Mountain and loved it. Thirteen Moons didn't quite come up to the same standard, but it was still a good story well told.

Evocotive of the times

A very long story which I need to read again in order to understand its ramifications . Unlike a regular book where you can go back and check up on details you carry on and gr
adually it becomes a whole. At first I thought it was much too long but in retrospect I enjoyed it very much and will read it again. It is full of fascinating thoughts, insights, observations and fine detail. I
It creates a very believable and at times horrifying reality but the writer is a man of many parts and well able to express them.

Thirteen moons . An intriging life story of a time not so very long past
