Lightning Shell
Description
In the electrifying conclusion to the People of Cahokia series, ancient rivalries erupt as the fate of a civilization hangs in the balance.
Lightning Shell marks the dramatic conclusion to the People of Cahokia sub-series by bestselling authors W. Michael and Kathleen O'Neal Gear.
Spotted Wrist's squadrons are about to launch an assault on Evening Star Town, while the new Keeper's loyal squadrons have seized control of central Cahokia. Blue Heron, declared dead by her enemies, is alive and plotting with Seven Skull Shield to determine the city's future.
In the distant east, Walking Smoke, the Lightning Shell witch, races back to Cahokia, seeking a cure for his impotence atop Morning Star's Mound. Night Shadow Star pursues him, determined to stop him at any cost. Close behind, Fire Cat follows mercilessly, ready to pay the ultimate price to thwart Night Shadow Star.
As these forces converge, Cahokia faces a reckoning that will shake it to its core and forever change the course of its history. Set against the rich backdrop of the prehistoric Mississippian civilization, this epic tale of power, politics, and destiny will keep you captivated until the very end.
