Description
Dan Simmons' Black Hills is a sweeping and visionary story that spans some of the most tumultuous periods in American history. When a young boy at the Battle of Little Bighorn believes he has taken the ghost of General Custer into his body, sixty years later, Custer finds himself trapped in a strange, dark place, writing sensuous and heartbreaking missives to his beloved wife.
As Paha Sapa, a dynamiter on Mount Rushmore, plots to blow up the monument, an intricate web of time and space begins to unravel. The story hurtles forward, taking readers from the old West to the Dust Bowl of the 1930s and into our own time, with no clear beginning or end.
With its unique blend of historical fiction, science fiction, and American culture, Black Hills is a compelling and immersive read that will keep you enthralled until the very end.
