Summary
Told for the first time from the Native perspective through the eyes of Lakota warrior Cloud, the story also weaves in the lesser-known but strategically important Battle of the Rosebud and the uncertain future that faced the Lakota following victory. Once again, Marshall infuses the story with his unique voice and eye for detail, creating a page-turning Western with a style of its own.

Critic reviews
"I found myself brought into the Lakota world; Marshall does a superb job of showing how difficult things were becoming for the Lakota as their land was overtaken and the buffalo herds disappeared." ( Historical Novels Review)

The Long Knives are Crying
This book takes you right into the mysterious and gentle world of the native american in spite of the violent nature of the clash of white and indigenous cultures. Joseph M Marshall is a wonderful story teller; and what a story!

amazing detail
I love listening to Joseph m Marshall 3rd. his voice is so soft and easy to listen to and his telling of the old ways makes me feel like I was there. the details of the history of these battles for freedom of the first nation people are so different from the so called historical narrative, but you know they're the real truth of events.

Unmissable.!!
Breathtaking book, brings the already high feelings of shame and resentment of the white settlers to a new higher level

The other side of the history books
This is not my first Marshall book and it certainly won’t be my last. Detailed, emotive, captivating and full of wisdom.

Disappointing Performance
What disappointed you about The Long Knives Are Crying?
This had the potential of being a great book, but the characters are too one dimensional and the story too often loses focus and wanders all over the place. I was also disappointed in the audio narration which is below the standard I have come to expect with audio books.
