In the first book of the Tana-Waka series, Tana-Waka is summoned from his dying planet Earth to another world. An earthlike world with two moons inhabited by a native people not unlike the Native American peoples of Earth. He is their hope to end an ongoing war and unify two enemies who were once one people. This is the second book of this otherworldly series. The Anaka dreamer White Dove has prophesied the Inu attack of the peaceful Maka people. As the Maka villages are decimated by thousands of barbaric Inu warriors, the pregnant dreamer heads to the climactic battle between her and the Inu's evil shaman, the likes of which unleash the fearsome power of nature. The Maka are neither friend nor enemy of the Anaka. To enter Maka lands with Anaka warriors would not be taken kindly, but it is their dreamer who insists they can and must help, or the entire Maka people will die. Tana-Waka and War Chief Haka head south to aid Deputy War Chief Five Killer, as they consider the punishment for three of their senior warriors for breaking formation in battle. A new and heinous evil is discovered in the southern lands that border the Anaka. In Crane and Maka villages, women and children are disappearing in the night and none has returned. These crimes may be heinous enough to unleash the wrath of the forest spirits.
