I found the thriller aspect itself only mildly interesting, but there's a lot more to it than that. One of his themes (present in his other work, harsh and in-your-face in this one) is the underlying inherent enmity between (all) Native people and (all) colonizers, despite the best intentions of some of us to the contrary. Makes for a tough and thought-provoking read, perhaps especially if you happen to be a white guy living on a reservation. Review it when you finish it.

Maybe I'll try to collect them and make my own mix... I looked up the Breakfast on Pluto book a bit too. Looks interesting. This page has a chapter excerpt.
