This Tender Land is a book written by William Kent Krueger and published by Atria Books (now owned by Simon & Schuster) in September 2019. Krueger had written a companion novel to Ordinary Grace, that was accepted and revised, but he pulled it at the last minute and revised it substantially over the next four years, incorporating elements from Adventures of Huckleberry Finn and the Odyssey. After these lengthy reviews, Krueger said "I am deeply in love with this book. I love it as much, if not more, than 'Ordinary Grace'."

| - This Tender Land is a book written by William Kent Krueger and published by Atria Books (now owned by Simon & Schuster) in September 2019. Krueger had written a companion novel to Ordinary Grace, that was accepted and revised, but he pulled it at the last minute and revised it substantially over the next four years, incorporating elements from Adventures of Huckleberry Finn and the Odyssey. After these lengthy reviews, Krueger said "I am deeply in love with this book. I love it as much, if not more, than 'Ordinary Grace'." It tracks the adventures of 12-year-old Odysseus "Odie" O'Bannion, his older brother Albert, and two of their friends after they flee the brutality of the (fictional) Lincoln Indian School, and travel by canoe down the (fictional) Gilead, Minnesota and Mississippi Rivers in hopes of reuniting with their aunt in St. Louis.
