Book Cover & Preview Text
Longbow was not like the rest of the men in his village. When he was growing up, he was often compared to the corn stalk. A corn stalk that was scraggly and windblown instead of a stalk that was slender and tall. At six feet, with dark brown stringy hair, and deep dark hallow eyes that looked as if they were bottomless pits, set Longbow apart from the men in the village. The villagers knew Longbow’s anger was not only from the many years he had been teased, but because the elders did not save Little Fox.
To the villagers who had the courage to face Longbow, it seemed as if his eyes were on fire from the anger and rage in his heart. Women and children were now more afraid of Longbow because they knew he had the power to see what was in their soul through their eyes. When the women and children in the village meet Longbow, they lowered their head so he could not look into their soul and see how much they feared him. Little Fox was the only one who knew Longbow for the kind, and gentle person he was and even that was taken away from him when she died.
