Review title: A Landscape Devoid of Purpose
Product review: As a novelist myself (The Legacy, Savage Press Oct. 2000), I began reading James Burke's latest tome with an eye towards learning something about the Great American West and the interplay between the land and Burke's fictional charactors. While the desciptions of Montana soared and provided a stunning background to "Bitterroot", the lack of any meaningful plot and the use of cardboard people to populate the landscape was disappointing. I had never read any of Burke's stuff. I was anticipating a northern version of Tony Hillerman. I was sorely disappointed.
