Overview

A tale of sorcery, witchcraft, and romance set in the heart of Native America--where myth and truth collide, and the line between savior and monster begins to blur. When a Seneca Iroquois town on Lake Ontario is beset by an evil spirit, its female chieftain, Walking Turtle, calls upon seven shamans and seven warriors from neighboring tribes to free her people from the demon. Meanwhile, a young woman named Found by the River is accused of witchcraft and faces certain death unless she and her protector, Willow, can escape their tormentors. Into this turmoil comes Sun Dog, a charismatic magician leading refugees fleeing the collapse of their civilization. Brimming with unforgettable characters and grounded in history, ""The Sun Dog"" is the follow-up to ""The Wolf and The Willow"", reintroducing Willow and Wolf in an ongoing saga set in Native America during the tumultuous ""Lost Century"" of the 1500s.
