About this product

Product Information

In People of the Raven, a ward-winning archaeologists and New York Times and USA Today bestselling authors W. Michael Gear and Kathleen O'Neal Gear spin a vivid and captivating tale around one of the most controversial archaeological discoveries in the world, the Kennewick Man---a Caucasoid male mummy dating back more than 9,000 years---found in the Pacific Northwest on the banks of the Columbia River. A white man in North America more than 9,000 years ago? What was he doing there? With the terrifying grandeur of melting glaciers as a backdrop, People of the Raven shows animals and humans struggling for survival amidst massive environmental change. Mammoths, mastodons, and giant lions have become extinct, and Rain Bear, the chief of Sandy Point Village, knows his struggling Raven People may be next.

"I haven't read a novel this good in a long, long time. People of the Raven draws you into a magnificent, sweeping world--America, circa 7300 B.C.-that is so real you can almost breath in the air of it. It tells a bighearted story of war and peace, love and violence, with a cast of richly drawn characters. This is a novel that will stay with you for years---I guarantee it."---Douglas Preston, New York Times bestselling coauthor of Brimstone on People of the Raven "People of the Raven, at one level, is the recreation of a lost and forgotten civilization by two noted archaeologists. But this story of Kennewick Man also involves an important legal battle pending in the U.S. Supreme Court and is a good read for those of us intrigued by the earliest Americans."-Tony Hillerman, New York Times bestselling author of the Joe Leaphorn and Jim Chee Novels on People of the Raven "Richly imagined . . .

Book was listed as 'very good' condition, but when it arrived the cover had stains, creases and folds, and a small tear on one edge. It was packaged ok and the packaging was not damaged, so this was not something that happened during shipping. I messaged them and they replied quickly and instructed me to initiate a return through eBay. I was refunded the full price in less than an hour. Great customer service!

  • Raven Honoring People

    Wait a minute! I'm on Ebay to buy my wife a 30th anniversay gift. My wife is the the writer. Not me! She loves the First American books by Michael Gear and his wife Kathleen O'Neal Gear. Got some of their books for her birthday from her cousin in Oklahoma. Sure I read two of their books.. Really did like the story about the first city in the United States, The People of the Owl. Those First Americans weren't much different than us, today. In the the People of the Raven, the legend of white people showing up to live with the First Americans comes into focus. Most people believe that the First Americans came over the land bridge between Siberia in Russia and Alaska in the United States.Then why do white people keep showing up on the east and west coast of the United States to live in ...

  • WoW Factor

    I have read most of the books written by this couple. Some of HIS books, some of HER books, and then THEIR books. The WoW Factor appears when they write together. They have a style that generally makes the first chapter hard to get into, by the second chapter, you're hooked in a very believable story. Dusty Stewart is one of my Hero's !!! But he's not in this book. I honestly think that the past in North America, could have been a whole lot like these books. Spellbinding, adventurous, magical...

  • Great Book

    I loved this book as much as the others in the Earth Children's series. I would recommend it to anyone who likes a good story written from a historical perspective. The Gears leave no detail out and giv you everything you need to paint a perfect picture in your mind's eye as you read. Their characters truly become real.

  • People Of The Raven by Kathleen O'Neal Gear, W. Michael

    Very Good addition to "The People of" series---shows where some of our traditions and beliefs might have derived from---story of early American possible history---Impelling and hard to put down without finishing because of the interesting way in which the writer keeps you locked into the story---Excellent Reading
