: I've read both "Indian Killer" and "The Lone Ranger and Tonto Fistfight in Heaven." I don't plan to read "Indian Killer" again. I think it would be a shame to introduce Sherman Alexie to new readers through that book. I'd rather they discover his humor and (can't think of the right word. Dang Alzheimers again! "Pathos" is too dramatic, but it's sort of the thought.) before reading something so dark. How about TLRATFIH or "Reservation Blues" first?

I think I would prefer "Reservation Blues" since I've already read TLRAFTIH.
