To win the heart of Princess Luna, daughter of the Chief of Chiefs, Moxton Metis, must find and kill the elusive white deer and bring her its fur. He is not alone in this quest. Most of the men of the tribe want to marry the beautiful girl. All of them are after the same prize, for what brave wouldn't want to marry the Chief's daughter. Moxtin figures he knows where the albino deer might be, but it is a place that is dangerous, and sacred. A place where none of the other hunters dare go.
Moxtin isn't afraid, mostly because his friends might be willing to help him. Join them as they face wild creatures both natural and magical on an adventure that will take you through twists and turns, deep into the spirit world, where nothing is as it seems, and terrible danger hides in every shadow.

M. R. Mathias is a member of the Authors Guild who cares for his wife, a Breast Cancer Warrior who has Parkinson's. After raising two boys into fine young men, they and two dogs split their time between a modest smalltown home, and an apartment built on a floating dock on Lake Ultura (aka Lake Texoma) which foots into an amazing State Park brimming with all sorts of wildlife. Like the wizards of old, he tends to the animals who share the area and inspire the creatures in his works. He likes to fish, write, play guitar, and he builds all sorts of things out of reclaimed wood. He sold over two million eBooks most of them before eBooks were cool. His work is critically acclaimed, and has earned multiple literary awards, including a coveted Locus Poll nomination.
