Status Updates From The Blessing Way

I inherited all of the Leaphorn & Chee novels so now I have to read them. Hillerman is an interesting dude - apparently accurate & respectful in his depiction of indigenous (mostly dine) culture but. . . he was a white guy. It sounds like most older natives love this series, because it was all they had at the time representation wise - but younger folks are more rightfully skeptical and advocate native authors.
