I'm always hesitant to read works "inspired by" the beliefs or culture of a group the author does not belong to, and even more so when that's Native beliefs, which are already hit by both "wow so mystical and mysterious" and "constantly being butchered."
The note on why he wrote this in this way does make him appear well-meaning, but it's also got an undercurrent of "because I wanted to," which isn't reassuring.
