People of the River is a gripping saga of pre-historic America that takes us to the Mississippi Valley and the tribe known as the Mound builders.

It is a time of troubles. In Cahokia, the corn crop is failing again and a warchief - and the warrior woman he may never possess - are disgusted by their Chief's lust for tribute. Now even the gods have turned their faces, closing the underworld to the seers. If the gods have abandoned the people, there is no hope - unless it comes in the form of a young girl who is learning to Dream of Power.

A masterful story of North America's Forgotten Past by New York Times and USA Today best-selling authors W. Michael Gear and Kathleen O'Neal Gear.

Another absolutely stunning installment in this fantastic series. I can't get enough of them! I've read this over and over as a paperback, but i blew me away as an audio. I think this is my favorite of the series. Nightshade is such an iconic character and I totally loved the feel I got from hearing her parts.
I love how the stories have evolved from the beginning, into the mythology of the culture's religion in his one. These books are so rich in content and the way the authors incorporate characters and lore into them just amazes me. Having them come into vivid reality with audio just makes them all the more enjoyable. Truly incredible works.
The reader for these is simply perfect. His raspy voice and changes for the different voices bring the characters to life.

Exceptional

I believe I may have enjoyed the Audible version a bit more then when I read the book. The narrator gave me a better grasp of the characters personalities. I will be excited to see more in the series made into audiobooks!

Nothing Michael and Kathleen are both great archaeologists and historians who so I their research and then write fascinating stories that could be true…
