Product description

From Publishers Weekly

Joanne Walker, a likable young Seattle beat cop, continues to learn the ropes of her even more dangerous job as a shaman in Murphy's spirited second urban fantasy (after 2005's Urban Shaman). After a fencing lesson at the university, Joanne stumbles on the body of Cassandra Tucker, a 20-year-old junior, in the showers. The autopsy report states that Cassandra's death was due to a heart condition, but Joanne suspects otherwise. In her role as shaman, Joanne investigates "the Dead Zone," a place between life and death, while her earthside sleuthing leads to a coven that in recognition of her special abilities invites her to take Cassandra's place in opening a passage between worlds for Virissong, an ancient Native American spirit who's expected to end a local heat wave and global warming. Unfortunately, if not surprisingly, Joanne discovers after several nightmarish and somewhat bloated magical misadventures that Virissong is one nasty lying serpent. (May)

Just as good as the first (Urban Shaman), highly recommend. Bought several in the series (Walker Papers) on a whim because they were a deal of the day; it was a good gamble.

3.0 out of 5 stars What happened to the awesome shaman? Disappointing 2,5 stars for this not so good sequel.

Note: you could probably read “Thunderbird Falls” without knowledge of the previous book, only you shouldn't. Firstly, book one is way better and secondly, the background makes it easier to follow events here.

Review
Wow, was that a disappointing second book! In “Urban Shaman” Joanne Walker is such a cool heroine, doing the right things, although she has to wing it, because of her total lack of knowledge about her heritage, both the native American and the Irish parts. And when I thought that after being forced to acknowledge her powers and the magic and the other planes of existence, Joanne would of course start learning all about being a shaman and how to use her skills and stuff, I thought so wrong. Because Joanne Walker just did... nothing. Although knowing about entities like Cerunnos, Herne, the Hunt and other rather dangerous creatures and although seeing that something is not right with her plane of reality, she reverts to not acknowledging anything. Even worse, she sounds like a sullen, whiny teenager most of the time.

And when she finally starts learning and using her powers, it's with her literal eyes closed and even I, having no spiritual bone in my body, knew that something was so not right here. But not Joanne, she questions nothing. She just plunges on and wreaks havoc and continues even when the evidence that things aren't ideal is blatantly showing. No, the too-stupid-to-live actions go right on. That was excruciatingly hard to read.

Sadly, the plot, too, isn't all that: Joanne finds the body of a young woman at the university grounds, who apparently was a witch and when approached by the members of said coven, Joanne accepts their invitation to take the woman's place. At the same time Coyote disappears, a spiritual teacher enters her “spirit garden” and from there on it's weird spirit journeys, weirder rituals and no interesting case at all to solve for the cop Walker is. If “Urban Shaman” hadn't been such a wonderful UF read for me, I probably wouldn't have finished “Thunderbird Falls”, I was so angry at Joanne. But yeah, the premises for the series are good and so I'll give it one more try and see if this was a slip or if there really isn't more to Shiobhan Walkingstick, the Urban Shaman of Seattle.

3.0 out of 5 stars Un bilan mitigé
Reviewed in France on October 28, 2013

L'histoire n'est pas mauvaise, mais j'ai quand même été frustré par le refus du personnage d'assumer sa fonction, refus mal justifié à mon sens.

En essayant d'éviter de spoiler, les événements de ce livre sont de nature à bouleverser le monde, et je ne suis pas convaincu qu'ils vont le faire.

Malgré ces deux défauts, la construction est solide et j'espère qu'il s'agit en fait d'une transition vers un volume trois exceptionnel.

5.0 out of 5 stars Book 2 or 3? Fantastic follow up
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on August 26, 2012
Verified Purchase
While Amazon calls this book 3 it's actually the second full book in the Walker papers. The intervening story is a short in  Winter Moon (Luna) . I'd recommend you read this first, as the third story makes frequent reference to the happenings of the short story. I really enjoyed this outing of Joanne Walker - she's becoming more comfortable with her powers and starting to understand how she can use them to help others.

I did occasionally get a little lost in the imagery of the author, but never so much that I couldn't follow the plot. The romance (or not) evolves slowly but realistically, leaving me wishing for a little more.

This was a great read, and a welcome addition to the series. I wish I'd read the short story first though!

5.0 out of 5 stars C.E. Murphy delivers another winner!
Reviewed in the United States on April 29, 2006

C.E. Murphy has a gift of drawing the reader into her world and making the unbelievable seem believable. THUNDERBIRD FALLS is no exception as she once again weaves her magic.

Joanne Walker is a reluctant shaman. She didn't believe in the supernatural until events left her with no other choice (see URBAN SHAMAN). Now, as a beat cop, she discovers the dead body of Cassandra Tucker. Cassandra was part of a coven that hoped to bring Virissong back from the Lower World. The coven believes that Virissong's return will rebalance the world and stop the heat wave that is decimating the city's resources.

Joanne joins the coven but is distracted by the hospitalization of her cabbie friend, Gary, who has a heart attack. Her distraction prevents her from seeing that something is terribly wrong as she accidentally assists with releasing demonic spirits on Seattle. Will Joanne be able to stop the demons in time to save Seattle? And why has her spirit guide, Coyote, abandoned her?

Joanne Walker is the kind of person you can envision yourself hanging out with on a Saturday afternoon. She is down-to-earth and not afraid to question herself. She is a bit naive in regards to her shamanistic powers, but that is to be expected from someone who was a skeptic until recently. Her sense of humor keeps her from appearing arrogant and is what makes her character so realistic. It is also the strength of her character that makes this series so entertaining.

This story can be read as a stand alone novel. However, this reviewer highly recommends that readers first read URBAN SHAMAN or the novella in WINTER MOON to better understand Joanne's character and her relationship with Coyote. Readers new to the series may be a bit confused by the whole spirit world and Joanne's aptly named Dead Zone.

Overall, THUNDERBIRD FALLS is a powerful addition to the series and well worth reading. This reviewer looks forward to finding out where Coyote has gone and to seeing how C.E. Murphy further develops Joanne's interpersonal relationships with both Captain Morrision and Gary.

I ordered the first 3 books in the series on the strength of previous reviews and as I thought they would be similar to Faith Hunters books. I did persevere through them all but will not be buying any more. I found them to be a bit confused and hard to follow which was a shame as the stories themselves were good. I will be sticking to Faith Hunter, Karen Chance, Adrian Phoenix etc in future
