About this product

Product Information

By 1300 AD, the Sky Hand people had crushed and enslaved the Albaamaha people and built their high-walled capital, Split Sky City, to dominate towns up and down the Black Warrior River. But a violent wind is brewing that may topple the city's mighty walls. Great armies are on the march, and a cunning new leader, Smoke Shield, has risen. He will lead the Sky Hand people either to stunning triumph or to bloody doom. Old White, Trader, and the mystical Two Petals are journeying across the Choctaw lands straight into the chaos. Old White, the Seeker, must play a delicate game of espionage. For Trader the slightest indiscretion--let alone the temptation of forbidden love--could lead to disaster. Two Petals, the Contrary, faces the toughest choice of all : She must betray herself and her friends to Smoke Shield or live forever in the backward grip of madness. And Spirit Power has laid a far deadlier trap for them in the rainbow colors just beneath the rolling surface of the Black Warrior River. A novel of desperate political intrigue and spiritual power, People of the Thunder once again demonstrates the Gears' mastery of American prehistory. Explore the ancestral heritage of the Chickasaw, Choctaw, Creek and Yuchi peoples as the majesty and genius of the vanished Mississippian mound builders' civilization comes to life.

Reviews
"A timely saga of environmental catastrophe. Drawing on their backgrounds in archaeology, the Gears vividly re-create Paleolithic America in this enchanting and instructive novel." --Publisher's Weeklyon  People of the Nightland "One of the best novels in the whole series. The Gears have consistently captured early Native American life with precision, detail, and narrative excitement, but inPeople of the Moonthey reveal their skills to even sharper effect." --Booklist, "Despite the complexity of the subject the books reads pleasently and fluently, even for a novice to the topic, without losing depth and precision, and takes a stand without losing sobriety and distance necessary for a scientific work."Wolfgang Gründinger in: Intergenerational Justice Review 1/2009 "Lukas H. Meyer ist ein Buch gelungen, das die internationale Diskussion nicht nur rezipiert, sondern zweifellos bereichert."Michael Schefczyk in: Neue Zürcher Zeitung 16.02.2006, Praise for People of the Thunder :   "The Gears, husband-and-wife archaeologists turned best-selling authors, continue their superbly research and rendered North America's Forgotten Past series. This novel is as good a place as any of its predecessors to jump in and begin enjoying the authors' talents."- Booklist   "Set in the 1300s largely in what is now Alabama and Mississippi, this complex novel tracks three wanderers' quest to create peace in violent times. Blended with the carefully drawn suspense of court intrigues, colorful characters and sharp plot twists, this is a terrific tale."- Publishers Weekly, Praise forPeople of the Thunder:   "The Gears, husband-and-wife archaeologists turned best-selling authors, continue their superbly research and rendered North America's Forgotten Past series.

  • People of the Thunder

    After reading people of the weeping eye I had to read the People of Thunder. A great story of the american indian. I was entranced by the adventures of the Trader and Seeker, I love the Gears put a story behind the ancient places on our continent. I sometimes wish to go see these old sites. I wonder how when the white man arrived that it was never discovered that huge cities and armies existed.
