Trying to hang in there until Book 9 comes out – although in the meantime I highly recommend Joseph's Dream to anybody else who is slightly obsessed with this kind of historical fiction...The final novel (so far) in the Bregdan Chronicles, Shifted with the Winds is a slower, more thoughtful, more personal book than its prequels. Even Carried Forward by Hope and Glimmers of Change, which both take place after the end of the Civil War, deal with race riots, displaced families, and KKK demonstrations, as well as the worst maritime disaster in American history.Shifted with the Winds begins in a similar vein, with a harrowing, edge-of-your-seat climax, when the so-called firefighters burn down the new cholera hospital in Moyamensing, while Carrie, Janie, and the other women medical students narrowly escape. This really grabs the reader's attention from the very first page, but the rest of the entire book focuses on the social interactions and family histories of the characters. By contrast with the earlier books in the series, Shifted with the Winds is more of a social drama than a war drama, and in some ways I like it even better.My favorite scene recreates the Harvest Festival Tournament from Storm Clouds Rolling In, where Carrie first fell in love with Robert. The 1860 Tournament and the 1866 Tournament are perfect bookends that show exactly how much Cromwell Plantation has changed during the war years. Now the women and the freed slaves are jousting, and a little girl wins because the grownups all work too hard to have time to practice.
