Tanglewood

Cassius, a virile slave, avenges the murder of his kind master and must flee with his pregnant wife and son via the Underground Railroad. The journey is endangered by greedy bounty hunters and harsh weather. When he discovers his ex-lover in a safe house, he is torn between desire and fidelity—and the pull of freedom.

Excellent

A well written novel. The author has a way of artistically creating a scene. Quite beautiful in places. Narrator performance is excellent.

Very descriptive and cinematic

Almost every chapter has very descriptive passages regarding sexual relationships between characters. I could have done without that; one chapter has a gay couple. No sex is described between them; but it is made clear they're a gay couple. I loved The parts that weren't about relationships between the characters though. It was very moving and thought provoking
