Didn't really care for the book. It's an old book, reprinted in 1987. It was too political and stereotyped the people a little too much for me. ( )

The book is growing on me, although I find it best to read in-between other books. The characters are enchanting; it's just that I am half-way through and still don't understand what a cave has to do with anything. It is interesting enough to keep reading even if there is no cave involved. ( )
