From the acclaimed, bestselling author of "Mother Earth Father Sky" comes an extraordinary new novel of courage and human conflict in a prehistoric wilderness of ice and snow. Eighty centuries before our time -- in the frozen interior of a place that would someday be called Alaska -- a clubfooted babe was left in the snow to die...until he was rescued by a young woman ravaged by her enemies and sworn to vengeance. Twenty years later, the child, called Chakliux, has grown to manhood and occupies an honored place as his tribe's treasured storyteller, while his adoptive mother K'os has grown cunning and cold.
