David A. Robertson has written such a fine, beautiful novel. He manages to combine hard truths about our history with a Narnia-like fantasy, sweeping us into the world of the story while opening our hearts as well. --Susin Nielsen, author of We Are All Made of Molecules and No Fixed Address This middle-grade fantasy deftly and compellingly centers Indigenous culture. --STARRED REVIEW, Kirkus Reviews This is a book that is rich in its characterization, evocative in its descriptions, and skillful in its weaving together of traditions of the past and life in the present. --CM Magazine Reminiscent of C.S. Lewis's Narnia stories, this fantasy is very much its own tale of ruptured Indigenous culture, of environmental reciprocity and care. --Toronto Star
