What an amazing read! It reads like a dream and a myth and a step back in time. It's a book about a beautiful widow, a 500 year old tree, a black panther that shouldn't exist in that place and time, a crow who picked up a button and a veteran with a past to it all. Then one day, the widow walks into a biker bar to hire someone to cut down the 500 year old Ghosthead oak. It's a beautiful, sad, lyrical story that you want to take your time with and breathe in each word and sit down at the base of the old oak or lay down on one of its great branches.

I read some of the other reviews on this book. I can only imagine that they cannot appreciate it because it is a different kind of story that a bestseller full of murder and action. It's not a story to keep you on the edge of your seat and make your blood pressure rise a few points. It's a story like a piece of fine dark chocolate and a fine wine that are meant to be slowly savored. In my humble opinion, it's a masterpiece of writing. I will be looking for more of his books.

Amazing book & great audiobook. I was riveted to every lyrical line. Highly recommended!

I wanted more of everything. More character development, more story, more pages... It was beautiful but not satisfying.
