The Nebula Award–winning author of the Alex Benedict novels and the Priscilla Hutchins novels returns to the world of Ancient Shores in a startling and majestic epic. A working stargate dating back more than ten thousand years has been discovered in North Dakota, on a Sioux reservation near Devils Lake. Travel through the gate currently leads to three equally mysterious destinations: (1) an apparently empty garden world, quickly dubbed Eden; (2) a strange maze of underground passageways; or (3) a space station with a view of a galaxy that appears to be the Milky Way. The race to explore and claim the stargate quickly escalates, and those involved divide into opposing camps who view the teleportation technology either as an unprecedented opportunity for scientific research or a disastrous threat to national—if not planetary—security. In the middle of the maelstrom stands Sioux chairman James Walker. One thing is for certain: Questions about what the stargate means for humanity’s role in the galaxy cannot be ignored. Especially since travel through the stargate isn’t necessarily only one way...

War has come to Havaen. After thousands of years, the return of Peresus’ evil to the world has brought with it chaos and destruction, as he seeks to finally complete his quest to conquer the realm. Already, the Aquaron Kingdom has fallen to his seemingly unstoppable might, and it appears only a matter of time before the rest of Havaen follows suit. As Peresus’ vast army begins to sweep across the land, obliterating all in their path, it is clear that even the power of Saberen, the Hero, will not be enough to defeat them. Only by fulfilling the ancient prophecy of the Hero – by uniting the three Sacred Keys and retrieving the Supremos from the Golden Realm – will Saberen have sufficient strength to overcome Peresus and the malevolent forces he commands. But one of the Sacred Keys is currently missing, its location unknown, and Peresus seeks to gain access to the Golden Realm too – to seize the Supremos for himself and use its limitless divine power to at last finish what he started all those millennia ago. To save Havaen, there can only be one outcome. Saberen must succeed, or the world will be plunged into darkness forever...

Every spring a great big monster climbs out of the lake and up the cliff to steal the mother Thunderbird's young chicks. This year she is determined to save them, but she needs human help. So she snatches up Brave Wolf while he is out hunting and carries him to her nest, where he comes up with a plan . . . Brave Wolf and the Thunderbird is based on a story recounted by Joe Medicine Crow in All Roads Are Good: Native Voices on Life and Culture (Smithsonian Institution Press and NMAI). Grandson of a scout who rode with Custer, Mr. Medicine Crow (1913-2016) was a highly respected elder, storyteller, and historian of the Crow people. The first member of his tribe to graduate from college, he earned an M.A. in anthropology. In addition to his calling as a teacher and "keeper of memories," he was a decorated World War II combat veteran and was awarded the Presidential Medal of Freedom by President Barack Obama in 2009.
