Two words: IN TENSE! This is the story of the end of the world as experienced by four young men, i.e. the extinction of ancestral Puebloan culture in the Chimney Rock/Chaco Canyon region. Sex and violence all around, done in the Gears' typical historical style.

I couldn't put it down. The only reason it isn't 5 stars is the frequent POV shifts (like a TV show) and the sheer number of characters and place names. I'm going to have to read it again to really get a detailed feel for the places and names.
