Inhaltsangabe
Civilizations in chaos, over-consumptive lifestyle, drought, overuse of the Earth's resources, changing weather patterns and over-population. Ripped from today's headlines? No, these were the conditions in the American Southwest more than a thousand years ago. Both the Hisatsinom (Anasazi) and Toltec cultures teetered on the brink of disintegration. One strong young Hisatsinom woman comes forth to aid her people. Kaiya is inspired by her mentor, as wise and respected shaman. But trouble is brewing in the South. From the militaristic Toltecs will come Drok, a priest with evil intent. Will outside destructive influences destroy the people? Can Kaiya bring a spirit of hope and healing before it's too late? Can the power of love overcome the searing flames of hate? Set in the wild and majestic canyonlands of the Colorado Plateau, here is the story of Kaiya, seer and healer, as she journeys through loss, magic, knowledge, power and joy.

Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor
Nancy Rivest Green was born in Massachusetts. Her family moved to Phoenix, so Nancy finished high school there, and attended the University of Arizona in Tucson. She then entered a 28 year teaching career. Her life changed forever when she discovered the Grand Canyon, living and teaching in Grand Canyon National Park with her ranger husband. She was an award winning Special Education teacher and school librarian. Now retired and living on the edge of the Kaibab National Forest outside of Flagstaff, Nancy continues her love affair with nature. If she’s not hiking, running the Colorado River, bicycling or traveling, she’s reading and spending lots of time on writing. Three of Nancy’s short stories have been published in the “Northern Arizona Authors Association Collected Works, Volume 2.” She is currently working on her next book about encounters with animals of the Southwest.
