The fourth novel in North America's Forgotten Past Cahokian story
cycle, Star Path is an evocative tale about America's greatest
pre-Columbian city by New York Times bestselling authors W. Michael
and Kathleen O'Neal Gear
How do you say no to a god?
The god incarnate, Morning Star, sets his human sister Night Shadow Star
and her slave Fire Cat on a dangerous journey to the edge of their
world. For their brother, Walking Smoke, still lives...and is a madman
who is convinced that he is the true deity destined to rule Cahokia.
Night Shadow Star has her own agenda; the Underworld Lord Piasa has
promised that if she and Fire Cat succeed with his agenda, they might
become nameless, clanless, and worthless. And thus free.
But the treacherous Tenasee River that they must travel holds its own
perils. And at the end of the journey, Walking Smoke prepares to spring
his trap.
Star Path, the fourth book in the Gears' People of Cahokia series,
provides us with a rare look into the mystical underpinnings of Native
American culture and the founding of Mississippian civilization.
