The Endless Forest: A Novel (Wilderness)

The whole series is worth reading. The first book started out a little predictable but, halfway through the story line was more interesting. The rest of the books were very interesting historically, fictionally, and character wise.

This maybe my favorite of the series after the first of course! The story had plenty of love and wrapped everything up so nicely! I love how the series gives each Bonner character time to shine. This book focuses a lot on Daniel, Birdy, and Lily. But mostly on Daniel and it was wonderfully heart warming. SPOILER ALERT: the epilogue leaves you pretty broken up!

I love her story telling, period. I like heart felt life shown on pages. She does a good job of sharing the struggle and the joy of life. I love period pieces as well, HF. I am a big fan of Diana Gabaldon, and this flows along her lines. I like a series that shows the many lives of folks. I just hate when it ends.

I am sad to leave these friends..Sara Donati created interesting characters and brought them together "In the Wilderness". The Lake in the Clouds setting had a dreamlike quality that was mesmerizing. I highly recommend this series....SSK

I really liked the way they ended this book. They explain what happened to people by the paper that was published in the town. It was a way of "ending" the story, yet you could still continue on if she wanted to write another book.

***SPOILERS***

Some reviewers have mentioned that the end of the series was a let down. I disagree. I'm satisfied that the series is ended and that all the story lines are complete. Some writers (Diana Gabaldon) don't know how to conclude their character stories and we wait endlessly for the next installment. Donati gave us a good story with a beginning, middle and end all in a timely manner (timely being the key here).

Thanks for a great story and look forward to checking out your next book.

This entire series is an excellent trip into a world that was very different from ours. A close-knit family, suspense, danger and a touch of history wrapped between covers. Recommend the entire series to others.

I loved this Wilderness series. The Endless Forest was a great culmination of the entire series.
I learned so much about the Mohawk Indians and how they survived in the Endless Forest. Sara Donati's writings are so descriptive.
A real page turner.....

Must, Must read the entire series. You will get lost in the story and not be able to put any of the books down until you come to the end and then you won't be able to wait to get started on the next book in the series. This series is at the top of my all time favorites. Thank you

I have read the entire series and loved every book. It reminds me why I love reading In the first place. The characters are beautiful, honest, your imagination goes wild but the love and affection also the emotions u get from reading it is truly beautiful. I want more ?

Well-written book embodies endless history research and weaves many tales into an enjoyable saga. Characters are well-rounded, plot is complex and intriguing, and I wish there were more and more of this series.

I would hope that anyone reading this book has alread read the ones that came before. Such a good story and great carecters. I wish there would be moreon this story line, but this one is supposed to be the last one. I would recomend this book to anyone who likes this type of stories. I intend to re-read the whole series.

The book itself was amazing. Good to know that the whole family were together until the end.
I was quite sad how it ended, but it was a good idea with the newspaper clipping. Great idea.
Just sad it ended. I would have liked another book in the saga, but then again, we never want it to end.
Great saga, great read!

This is one of my all time favorite series besides Outlander. Both are fantastic. Highly recommend. This book has romance, history, suspense, action etc.... all rolled into one great series. Thank you for writing it. I'm reading it now for the second time & still love it as much as the first if not more.

This is the final novel in the Wilderness series and the plot returns to Paradise. Although there is not as much adventure as in the previous books, Donati does a good job tying together loose ends and concluding the series!

I came across Into the Wilderness years ago, and have now lost count how many times I have read it. I loved all the novels that came after and The Endless Forest is certainly no exception. It contains all the strong characters, adventure, family strength, struggle, and romance that I love so much about this series. I think it is a very fitting conclusion, and was very teary to "read" goodbye to all my favorite characters. Thank you very much Mrs. Rosina Lippi for these beautiful novels they have given me my most enjoyed reading experience and I will continue to read and reread them for many years to come.

Once again I have thoroughly enjoyed reading this last book in the Wilderness series. A great ending. The series has been gripping and I have learnt a lot about living in the wilderness and what hard times our ancestors endured.
