AMERICAN HISTORY REMEMBERS THE REVOLUTION AND THE BIRTH OF A NATION-THIS IS A STORY THE EARTH REFUSES TO BURY.
Set in the southern Appalachians during the most violent decades of colonial expansion, Indigo: A Warrior's Burden follows Yona Equa, a young Cherokee hunter, as his world begins to fracture under the weight of a foreign culture spilling over the mountains. Change comes fast-iron, rifles, and sickness carried in the wake of trade. Yona clings to the old ways, even as the living earth grows restless.
The Cherokee do not see land as property; they view themselves as part of it. When chiefs begin trading ground for peace, young warriors hear betrayal, not diplomacy.
For the clans, it is a time of uncertainty-blurred lines between peace and war, kin and stranger, honor and betrayal. Peace is bought with old men's marks on paper-and paid for with young men's blood on the ground.
Haunted by visions and shadowed by a coyote spirit, Yona and the warriors face betrayal and impossible choices as they fight to hold on to what matters: their people, their homeland, and the memory of who they were before the world changed.
A story of fierce love, quiet grief, and unyielding devotion, Indigo is both an elegy and a battle cry-an unforgettable portrait of the Aniyunwiya, the Principal People.
