A nice continuation of the series. Occasionally these chapters read like isolated installments instead of one continuously flowing story. K. Altabef always succeeded in tying the events together part way through the subsequent chapter, but it interrupted the flow slightly.
I liked that not every life was happily-ever-after. There were some deaths. That keeps the reader on the edge of his/her seat never knowing for sure how successful Alaana will be in each specific journey.

Engaging tale of a female shaman
Very engaging book series of the young woman Alaana, who is an Inuit Shaman feeling her way through the many losses, challenges and responsibilities she faces. A good read for those interested in Beringia culture and spirit.
