This book is a rare gem, combining an usual story with a direct tie to a native culture and exquisite artwork. It retells a very satisfying tale with a vulnerable young hero who must decide for himself how to solve a difficult dilemma that terrifies him. But his actions don't just effect himself. As his Grandmother tells him, his choices will determine the fate of the people. Beyond the mythic tale, it's obvious that research of the Modoc culture was important to the visual artist. It has an unusual look on every page and is stunning in total effect. Turning each page was a delight, and felt very much like a moving painting.
