THE HOLY ROAD

In the sequel to DANCES WITH WOLVES, the Comanche warrior by that name continues his struggle to preserve his adopted way of life against the white man's ever encroaching efforts to destroy the Native American culture. Bruce Boxleitner's gravelly voice suits the rough story of a rough life. With barely perceptible shifts in tone, and slightly more evident applications of regional accents, he differentiates among young and elderly Comanche, white Quakers, politicians, women, and children, presenting all of them with dignity as befits their characters. Boxleitner's narrative passages flow naturally, carrying the listener through the wide open spaces of the plains and the desert Southwest as if carried on the backs of Comanche ponies. R.P.L.
