INDIGO'S #1 BEST BOOK OF 2019

NATIONAL BESTSELLER

FROM THE AUTHOR OF THE MARROW THIEVES, THE #1 NATIONAL BESTSELLER, MULTI-AWARD WINNER AND CANADA READS FINALIST

"Wildly entertaining and profound and essential." --Tommy Orange, The New York Times


Broken-hearted Joan has been searching for her husband, Victor, for almost a year--ever since he went missing on the night they had their first serious argument. One hung-over morning in a Walmart parking lot in a little town near Georgian Bay, she is drawn to a revival tent where the local Métis have been flocking to hear a charismatic preacher. By the time she staggers into the tent the service is over, but as she is about to leave, she hears an unmistakable voice.

She turns, and there is Victor. Only he insists he is not Victor, but the Reverend Eugene Wolff, on a mission to bring his people to Jesus. And he doesn't seem to be faking: there isn't even a flicker of recognition in his eyes.

With only two allies--her odd, Johnny-Cash-loving, 12-year-old nephew Zeus, and Ajean, a foul-mouthed euchre shark with deep knowledge of the old ways--Joan sets out to remind the Reverend Wolff of who he really is. If he really is Victor, his life, and the life of everyone she loves, depends upon her success.

Inspired by the traditional Métis story of the Rogarou--a werewolf-like creature that haunts the roads and woods of Métis communities--Cherie Dimaline has created a propulsive, stunning and sensuous novel.

absolutely loved the book! it really pulled me in and it's quite humourous. the writing is perfect and is very descriptive. the writing really transports you in the world of the main character, Joan. never a full moment in the book. I would totally recommend this book to my friends and family.

100% recommend

Overall, I think it's a good book. I enjoyed the narration, characters and the general trajectory of the story. But, the story was a bit too simplistic to sink its teeth into me.

Didn't grab me

I almost started listening to it all over again when it ended. Really enjoyed the whole thing. Helen is such an amazingly flawed and human heroine, I wonder if Ms Dimaline could make this into a series? hint hint hint
I'm not going to tell you anything about it, better writers than I have that covered. But I sure hope you buy it cause you deserve a little magic in your life, eh?

Brilliant!

If there is, then this is a candidate for consumption in this manner. Cherie Dimaline has embraced magic realism in the style of Isabel Allende and given us a Canadian mystery/fantasy with authentic characters as well as an undertone of political commentary. It is a brilliant read/listen that flows well through multiple points of view. Her words invoke the smell and the taste of the earth and the voices of her characters ring true. The only blip in my mind, is the ending. NO SPOILERS, but we do seem set up for a sequel in a way that seems unnecessary. I, for one, would read any sequel to this, in any event. Don't miss this one!

Is there such a thing as 'binge listening'?

This book is a thrill. Not a single time did I loose track of the story. It’s a clear easy to follow story that is genius. The reader was very good at expressing emotion. Only complaint I have is that it was hard to tell some of the side characters apart when listening.

Best Book I’ve Ever Heard

It was an exceptional book. The writing, the characters, the story. Even the fact that it was fundamentally a romance novel (albeit one about loss and grief and evil wolf men) didn’t bother me. It was plotted so well. The setting was so vivid (again, more childhood memories). High tension, high stakes, high emotions. The hamster scene made me physically ill. And the stuff with Zeuss broke my heart. But then.
The last chapter and epilogue, though admittedly masterful and (I hate to say it but) a perfect way to conclude the story, was such a huge bummer. Like, it just stopped and suddenly the Audible guy was hoping that I enjoyed this program. I had a very minor freak out. What a cliffhanger. What an epic, depressing and completely apt cliffhanger.

great

Fascinating and engaging until the end. Strong characters and a realistic portrayal of Canadian life without being overly discouraging like many of this genre. I also appreciated the subtle but honest commentary of the corrosive effect of organized religion for ulterior motives. I will read this author again.

Fascinating & Engaging.

This book was well narrated, the storyline was amazing and I would definitely recommend it

Amazing book

Loved everything about this book. I hope Cherie Dimaline has already started a follow-up novel to this one. I can't wait to find out what happens next with these characters.
