Morris's worldbuilding, with its intricacy and its sensitivity to anthropological and mythological detail, inevitably reminds one of Ursula LeGuin.-Kathryn Hinds, The Healer's Choice A god who guides heroes, but cannot find his lost love. A war chief with a vision, but with a deadly, personal cost. And a shaman with too many visions. Visions torment the shaman Phayaden. They fill her daily life without ritual or guide or drug. Reluctant to delve deeper into images of war that threaten her land, she flees to the steppes and her family's ghers to avoid both visions and the other world-only to invite a demigod into their homes. The demigod Engidu is surprised to find Phayaden instead of the potential hero he must test. He cannot seem to leave, but knows he must find the minor war chief Tengis. Will he become the leader the Tashihyel needs? Tengis comes to Phayaden's ghers to consult with her, despite rumors of her insanity. He has a vision for his country. He needs her advice as much as he needs the support of all the various fractious clans-because there's one thing that could stop him. The one man who refuses to side with him is his own blood brother. Neither Hero nor Demigod know that this is one challenge where they might need a shaman to survive. Cover Art by Grant Searcey.
