    “A retelling of the Adventures of Huckleberry Finn through the enslaved’s Jim point of view. You do not have to read or know Huck Finn or Tom Sawyer to be blown away by this work of art. I devoured this quickly and want as many other people as possible to experience its beauty, power, humor, horror, and importance.”

    “a twist on an American classic that touched my heart. It follows the pattern of a Huckleberry Fin/Tom Sawyer adventure story, but through the eyes of Jim”
