I somehow missed an installment and went back and read the latest three in a row. What a crazy, imaginative, compelling story. I am thoroughly enjoying the read, and I can't wait to find out what happens next.

Jena, I am SO happy that you list all of the chapters when you post a new one! I read some of the earlier ones when they first came out, and absolutely loved them. They are so well-written, interesting, accessible and compelling that I want to devour all of them. Unfortunately, my life being the maelstrom that it is, I have missed a number of chapters. But with the chapters listed and available, I know that I can fulfill my desire to go back, start at the beginning, and just relish the story in it's entirety. I hope that many readers are savoring your excellent writing.

Jena! This one grabbed me and wouldn’t let me go! Wonderfully paced. I’m saving it to re-read!

So glad you enjoyed, Diane.

Though it might not seem directly related to the ongoing insanity in our country right now, I want to point out that the Cherokee (whose culture is the basis of this story) are matrilineal - meaning it was women whose blood lines and wisdom oversaw the clans and guided the decisions. The story is getting there and is squarely focused on women’s power. HUGS!

Thanks! I have actually some Cherokee blood on my great grandmother’s side. I’ve always been fascinated by the Trail of Tears (horrified really), and we have been to Cherokee, NC and the smokies many times. 💕
