About this listen

The Search for Broken Sky is a story of unconditional love, uncompromising friendship, and unassailable loyalty between a young Native American woman, her faithful dog, and a horse of legendary intelligence, grace, and beauty. While some see them as outcasts in a community already widely viewed as outsiders, it is their own commitment to one another that they cling to and hold most dear. When one of them goes missing, all of their hearts are broken. Yet, despite their shared pain, their unwavering determination to be reunited allows them to overcome the impossible odds stacked against them.

The journey will take them across the majestic beauty and untamed wilderness of Wyoming, following a century-old smugglers' route along the Bighorn River. Although the picturesque landscapes are reminiscent of the untamed west of the mid-1800s, after sunset, there are dangers lurking in the shadows, where men are not necessarily recognized as being at the top of the food chain. As their expedition takes them north toward Montana, they are unaware of the predator stalking them from the cover of night, and the showdown they will face on the search for Broken Sky.

A Girl, a Dog, and a Horse

Heartwarming story about the unbreakable connection of love between a girl, her dog, and her horse. It's a short story but it packs a lot into the two and a half hours. I was so immersed into the story during a trip, that I was surprised I was at my destination already. Narration was great.

Powerful and Thought-provoking

I would like to say first to the author thank you for giving a voice to Indigenous People about mental health issues. I am a person of mixed heritage, a Hawaiian mother and Indigenous father, so this book speaks to me loud and clear. The Search for Broken Sky may be short, but it has a powerful message that the world needs to hear about unconditional love and acceptance. I really enjoyed the book it made me laugh, cry, mad, and stand up and cheer. This story is a MUST READ/LISTEN, to I promise you won't regret it. I received this book for free upon my request. I am voluntarily leaving my honest and unbiased review here of my own free will.

Wonderful!

Riano did a fine job of making this story from the heart. Native American people have a special place in my heart as my family had to hide out to keep from being taken out west to a reservation. Our people are close to the animals and land. The narrator did a great job bringing it to life.

Good Short Story

This story is written to bring awareness to the problem of autistic native American children and the lack of help. This story is about a young autistic girl who only comes out of her shell for the dog given to her and later her horse which later is stolen. Narrator does a good job with the entire storyline.

Great short story

This was a pleasantly good short story that I listened to while at a slow period during my shift at work. Diane did a great job with the narration and telling the story. The author did a good job with the characters.

Amazing engaging story

I was looking for a shorter story to listen to on an afternoon and what a great story I found! Love all the little details that helped build a story that had lots of twists and turns.

Narrator was amazing giving life to each character

Wonderful Story

Great story of how much a dog can be dedicated to his humans and other animals. Fun story to read. I would have rated it a 5 star book except for the inappropriate language. Seems to me there is enough vocabulary available without using such language. It's sad that I won't be able to share the book because of it.

The Shortest Story I'll NEVER Forget

I took about 3 seconds for Ahyoka, Apache, and Broken Sky to worm their way into my heart. After that, this audiobook was priceless in every way. Diane Scanzaroli's performance was incredibly humanizing, presenting Riano McFarland's unbelievable novel in a way that had me in laughter, tears, outrage, and tears again. Get it and listen on a rainy day, because I can almost guarantee you that you won't get anything else done once you start listening to it.
