"I highly recommend this novel...Tollefson does an amazing job of getting into the minds and hearts of the enemy." David Willson, Books in Review II, The VVA Veteran magazine. Season of Mists is an unexpected twist to the usual war story: it's written by a U.S. Marine from his enemy's perspective. Season of Mists takes us into the Vietnam conflict from the viewpoint of a Vietnamese peasant who joins the Viet Cong. It portrays this young man not as a brain-washed peasant or even primarily as a soldier, but as a human being. This is a story of loyalty to family and country, of courage and endurance-the story of a war characterized by deep suffering but carried to victory in the hearts of its people. G. Lowell Tollefson spent his youth in Southeast Asia and East Asia, an experience that informs his depiction of the region and its people. Season of Mists complements his work in Vietnam War Elegy and What is War? Together they provide a unique record of one man's attempt to come to terms with war in general by grappling with the issues raised by his own service in Vietnam.
