Résumé

In the desert, water means life. In the Valley of Two Rivers, the canals have allowed countless generations to farm this harsh land. Too much water, however, can mean death. After winter floods destroy the canals, the farming clans of Serpentgate fear that their last days have come-the time of desperation and division spoken of in the Prophecy of the Rainbow Knife. Mysterious deaths, accusations of witchcraft, and a clash between rain priests and the priestesses of the mother goddess have set parents against children, men against women, clan against clan. To prevent this calamity, Waterstrider, one of the Watermasters who long ago built the canals, is called home out of exile.
Waterstrider and his allies must survive a web of intrigue to restore the vast canal system and preserve their way of life. Volume 2 of Tales of the Watermasters Dramatic action and memorable characters drive an epic story of an ancient civilization. In these captivating novels set in the prehistoric Southwest, the People of Two Rivers are shown at the height of their glory as they face a catastrophe that threatens to destroy them utterly.
Before written history began in what we now know as Arizona, a vibrant culture of builders, dreamers, and artists known as the Hohokam flourished there for a thousand years. And then they vanished. What happened to these people? To find out, read the rest of the Tales of the Watermasters. Praise for the series: "Enthralling stories" .

À propos de l'auteur

Biographie de Sally Bennett Boyington

Sally Bennett Boyington fell in love with the Southwest during a childhood vacation in Flagstaff, Arizona. Later visits to ruins and a memorable kachina coloring book spurred a lifelong fascination with the history and people of the Southwest. During the twenty years she lived in one Arizona city or another as an adult, she witnessed devastatingly beautiful sunrises and sunsets, experienced spine-tingling moments of awe, and came to understand the fragility of human existence. Brought up in a family of readers, at four years old she demanded that her mother teach her to read.
Three years later, she had a Halloween poem published in the newspaper: creative writing had sunk its teeth into her and never quite let go. For a long time (300 books' worth), making a living with copy editing took priority over writing, but personal changes and recent developments in the publishing industry convinced Sally to share her imagined worlds with readers. She hopes they stimulate thoughts, conversations, and a new perspective on the real world in which we live.
