Power seeks first it's own survival. The Nasha-sheen had been in hiding since the fall of the great Yucatan cities. No longer a part of the Mayan Civilization, their isolation insulated the Nasha-sheen from the aparant demise of those pyramid builders.

Produktbeschreibung
Power seeks first it's own survival. The Nasha-sheen had been in hiding since the fall of the great Yucatan cities. No longer a part of the Mayan Civilization, their isolation insulated the Nasha-sheen from the aparant demise of those pyramid builders. In the next milennium, these hidden people studied, watched, and prepared themselves for the coming of the next great leader in power, one who might solve the problems humankind was creating for the rest of the world. The Nasha-sheen watched as their world diminished and other civilizations flooded the wild places, bringing wars and destruction, and they hoped for the change a new leader would bring. Yet they worried. Power was always a threat. Always. And the power within a great leader, a Somi, could rival all the destructiveness all the rest of humanity could conjure with their hatred, violence, and bombs. Somi might be salvation, but Somi could also be the greatest threat of all.
Autorenporträt
Corinne A. Dwyer (1950-2018) was a champion of books and writers alike. Spending nearly 50 years working at, and later owning, North Star Press, Corinne lived her literary passions and shepherded thousands of books into the world. The Nasha-sheen Chronicles--an epic, wise, beautiful, and arching series--were begun when Corinne was in third grade, and worked on until her final weeks. While she wrote many other books and stories, the Nasha-sheen Chronicles, the world and characters therin, were her beauty and brilliance in book form. Elizabeth Dwyer is the current owner and Senior Editor of North Star Press, as well as the farmer/owner of Dancing the Land Farm in Clearwater, Minnesota. Elizabeth first read Power Children, the first book in the Nasha-sheen Chronicles when she was 20, and it sincerely changed her life. From that time on the Nasha-sheen Chronicles has been a story she's returned to, again and again, for inspiration and solace. In the last years of Corinne's life, the two worked on the series together, honing, editing, and making it into the triumph that it is. Corinne died at the end of the summer in 2018, much of her last days were spent with Elizabeth reading Power Children to her aloud.
