This is a gorgeous story set in what would become the United States, well before the arrival of Europeans. A group of young Native Americans travel far in an epic tale to save the world, as they believe, fighting off fanatical terrorists along the way. The book is weighed down somewhat by extraneous detail, as if the authors wanted to demonstrate their vast knowledge of ancient Native American culture. Despite this, I was left with a strong desire to read similar books written by these authors.
