Ratha's Challenge: The Fourth Book of the Named 3 reviews Clare Bell
Puffin, 2007
They Just Keep Getting Better!
+ Before "Warriors", there was Ratha + Old Love Revived
I have read all of the books of the Named,and in my opinion,this is the best one so far! In this book,we meet a group of cats who are intelligent like the Named,but who live in a trance,obeying the internal 'song' of their leader,True-of-Voice.Ratha and the rest of the clan are puzzled by these ...

Ratha and Thistle-Chaser: The Third Book of the Named 2 reviews Clare Bell
Puffin, 2007
The Best Book of the Series
+ Fantastic Plot and Great New Heroine make this Book Wonderful
I always thought Ratha could just as easily be a villain as a hero. She is rash, uncompromising, and ruthless in her upholding of the law, and never hesitates to use the Red Tongue. However, in this book, the character of Newt is a genuine heroine. Sympathetic but not pitiable, Newt battles ...

Manitous: The Spiritual World Of The Ojibway (Native Voices) 3 reviews Basil Johnston
Minnesota Historical Society Press, 2001
Excellent reading!
+ Wonderful
This book is written in such a way to document the historical value and so interestingly you don't even realize you are learing all along the way. I found the book accurate as to the stories as I remember the old people telling them.

The Shaman: Patterns of Religious Healing Among the Ojibway Indians (Civilization of the American Indian ... 4 reviews John A. Grim
University of Oklahoma Press, 1988
Excellent synopsis of the shamanic practices of the Ojibwe.
+ A great research aid to Ojibway shamanism + Native Americans Live in a Universe
The author wisely places the practices of shamanism within the cultural context. At no point does the author make the mistake of reducing the shamanic practices to deities and such but correctly emphasizes the "forces" and movements of nature of which the shaman is an "expression." Excellent ...
