Conchatys= ?[edit]

Doing some Google searching, I suspect that the Conchatys mentioned in the novel are what is now known as the Coushatta; accordingly, I linked to that entry. But can someone with more familiarity with this topic verify that the equation is correct?

Sections to Delete or Substantially Trim[edit]

As it stands right now, a number of sections are long and list-like and feature a level of detail beyond what is called for in an encyclopedic space. In particular, I suggest that the Major Themes section could be deleted or substantially pared down. Similarly the Characters section could be substantially streamlined.Magic1million (talk) 07:06, 21 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Areas for improvement[edit]

I would personally suggest that the article as a whole suffers more from being written like an advertisement than it does from spelling and grammar errors, and the maintenance message should be changed accordingly. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Lord Gherkin (talk • contribs) 13:41, 22 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]
