Summary

Set in the American Southwest in about 900 A.D., this is the story of Echo, a young woman whose destiny as a wife and mother is suddenly changed by an accident. She is forced to leave her village life and her family to marry an aged High Priest, esteemed and feared by the People. In her new life, Echo gains the priest's knowledge and magic, which permit her to help the People in a fearsome time of angry gods and the end of her civilization as she knows it. An archaeological accurate and engrossing journey in time to one of the great North American archaeological sites.

Excerpts

I looked up. On the edge of the bright fireball of the Sun, I could see a darkening, as if something were closing down upon the Sun, blocking out its light. I had never seen this before, yet I had heard of it. In years past, this had happened before, but the Priests had managed to save the Sun. Still, it was one of the most frightening of all the tales ever told around the fireside in the winter.

"Stop planting," Father said to all of us. "This is very bad medicine. We must consult the Priests."

We dropped our tools in the field and ran up the trails into the courtyards. Others were doing the same, abandoning their planting and running to the villages. Fear hung in the eyes that I gazed into, a fear of something dark and unknown.
