Lightning shell : people of Cahokia / by Gear, W. Michael,author.; Gear, Kathleen O'Neal,author.;
"Lightning Shell marks the dramatic conclusion to the People of Cahokia sub-series by bestselling authors W. Michael and Kathleen O'Neal Gear. Spotted Wrist's squadrons are about to launch an assault on Evening Star Town. Meanwhile, the new Keeper's loyal squadrons have taken control of central Cahokia. Blue Heron's enemies have declared her dead, a supposed victim of the fire that consumed her palace. She's alive and in the end it will be her wits, Seven Skull Shield's licentious cunning, and a desperate gamble that determine who lives and who dies in Cahokia. Meanwhile, in the distant east, a desperate three-way race is underway. Walking Smoke--the Lightning Shell witch--hastens to make his way back to Cahokia, understanding that the cure for his impotence lies atop Morning Star's Mound. Night Shadow Star means to stop him before he can get to Morning Star. Following in her wake, Fire Cat is merciless. He will stop at nothing to ensure that it is he, not Night Shadow Star, who pays the ultimate price. The final showdown will shake Cahokia to its roots, and nothing will be the same again"--

The animal people choose a leader / by Wagamese, Richard.; George, Bridget1994-;
Includes bibliographical references.""Accompanied by award-winning illustrator Bridget George's luminous artwork, this tradition-steeped story from renowned author Richard Wagamese meditates on the unifying powers of wisdom, kindness and respect with all the visionary clarity of our most essential legends. The unmistakable voice of revered Ojibway author Richard Wagamese returns with this moving tale, beautifully illustrated by original work from Anishinaabe artist Bridget George. The story unfolds in a "Long Ago Time" when animals of all kinds share a common language and gather to solemnly consider which of them should be their leader. After hearing boasts about the qualities of the candidates--Horse's fleetness, Buffalo's stamina, Cougar's patience, Wolverine's stealth--the conference decides to settle the matter with a race between the challengers around a foreboding mountaintop lake. And there will be one more contestant of the most unlikely sort: a small, charmingly humble rabbit named Waabooz, whose chances are considered slim by all. In the action that follows, described with the piercing clarity and richness of any great legend, Wagamese and George gracefully convey the limits of physical force and the quietly irresistible energies of humility, empathy and a loving attachment to the land. Unforgettable for its lyrical power and poignant message, The Animal People Choose a Leader is yet another example of the late author's unique gifts as a storyteller, and a welcome reminder of his honoured place in Canadian writing."--
