| Publisher Description: In the mountains covered with smoke, the mother town of an ancient people sits in the bend of a river. There, the Keetoowah hold wisdom handed down through the ages. Twisted Hair, the storyteller travels from a distant coast with a new story. In the vain hope that the wisdom keepers can find a way to turn aside a threat that means the end of their world, he brings word of a prophecy fulfilled. The turtle people have come from the sea leaving death and devastation everywhere they walk. The foretold destruction unfolds, and the world changes. The mother town is lost, the fire on the sacred mound extinguished, but the wisdom lives on, for the sake of generations to come.Part fiction, part history, filled with mystic truth beyond both, the story of the People of One Fire comes to life in Twisted Hair. Travel with the storytellers who kept it alive until this day when their descendants can walk again upon the ground where the lost mother town stood. |
