A fiction that reads like a non-fiction. Some very intense moments are featured throughout the novel. The authors, Bill and Cindy Paul, delved deeply into the history that either brought out the best or worse in some of the characters. As you, the reader, go back to the 1800s to the time of Smith Paul and his generation, you will see for yourself, at first hand, what the man went through, along with his family. Three generations of whites and Indians, how they fought against each other through jealousy and strife, that will either build up or knock down the reputations of these strong individuals.

The first book describes Smith Paul and what he went through as a white boy growing up among Indians. After running away from a shattered home, he was embraced by the Chickasaw tribe. While moving with the tribe, Smith fell in love with the wife of the Reverend McClure. Despite his deep love for Ala-Teecha, he would not let himself be near her, because she and the Reverend had taken him into their care. Smith became a scout and stayed ahead of the tribe. Therefore he led the Chickasaw tribe to a new land that would eventually become Smith Paul's Valley, a place where Smith Paul believed that Indians, whites, and blacks could live in equality.

The second book describes Sam Paul, the half-breed son of Smith Paul, and what he did for and against the Indian Territory. He had his own judge and jury -- men who fought along side of him. Among these renegades was Fred Waite, who rode with Billy the Kid. As the posse traveled through the land, enemies gathered up against Sam Paul. Nevertheless each time he stood before the judge, he always managed to walk away. Ultimately when Sam stood before the judge once more, he had to stay a while in jail. Will Sam learn his lesson? Or will his greed finally come face to face with him and cause him to lose everything?

The third book describes Joe paul, Sam Paul's son, whose hatred toward his father causes a lot of problems to come to a head. Will those problems be rectified? Or will father and son fight it out tooth and nail? Will Joe paul hasten his own destruction? Read Shadow of an Indian Star: A Novel and find out who will come out the victor. Or will there be any winners?
