Krie Redsky is an extraordinary Indigenous child… But is he strong enough? How will he access the power to do battle and win when even the Knowledge Keepers cannot prepare him for what is to come? Learning to cope with coming of age, loss, friendship, first love, and betrayal, Krie struggles like any teenager. Nurtured by Knowledge Keepers as “ one who is without fear, and with the ability to cross realities,” he is soon recognized as an individual who can – and will – battle the terrifying ancient spirit stealers known as Bonewalkers.
