Kaiyo - The Lost Nation is the first book in a series which is certain to leave you wanting more. Fast-paced and filled with intense action scenes, there's never a dull moment reading this book. The story is told in first person through the eyes of each McLeod - Sam, Susan, Libby, Dean, and Grace - and the unknown hunter called the Tracker. This, coupled with intensely descriptive battle scenes, draws you, the reader, into the story until you live each moment vividly and empathize with the characters. Slowly, as the book progresses, you'll realize that the book's premise is not as simple as you might think at the beginning. This is a story of rural Montana, where a family fights to protect each other from a very natural danger - bears. But there's a much greater significance to the struggle, one that will force you to think deeply to find out just what the McLeods are up against.
