Bestselleren nyindlæst som lydbog. For 14.000 år siden var den nordvestlige del af Nordamerika befolket af jægere og krigere, der var indvandret fra Asien på jagt efter føde og nye levesteder. Men pladsen var trang, fordi vejen sydpå var spærret af den enorme iskappe, der dengang dækkede det nuværende Canada. "Ulvens folk" er en medrivende og dramatisk beretning om en lille flok mennesker, der finder vejen til det store, ubefolkede kontinent syd for isen.

Der er gået omkring 6.000 år, siden den unge jæger og shaman Ulvedrømmer ledte sit folk gennem isen og åbnede det nordamerikanske kontinent for de første mennesker, som det blev fortalt i "Ulvens Folk".

Den unge kvinde Klart Vand flygter fra sin stamme og fra sin brutale mand for at værne om sin lille søn, Lille Danser, som hun ved får ganske særlige evner som drømmer.

Der er gået omkring 8.000 år siden den unge jæger og shaman Ulvedrømmer ledte sit folk gennem isen og åbnede det nordamerikanske kontinent for de første mennesker, som det blev fortalt i Ulvens folk.

A religious miracle: The Cahokians believed that the divine hero Morning Star had been resurrected in the flesh. But not all is fine and stable in glorious Cahokia. To the astonishment of the ruling clan, an attempt is made on the living god's life. Now it is up to Morning Star's aunt Matron Blue Heron to keep it quiet until she can uncover the plot and bring the culprits to justice. If she fails, Cahokia will be torn asunder in warfare, rage, and blood as civil war consumes them all.

A gripping new saga of pre-historic America that takes us to the Mississippi Valley and the tribe known as the Mound builders. It is a time of troubles. In Cahokia, the corn crop is failing again and a warchief - and the warrior woman he may never possess - are disgusted by their Chief's lust for tribute. Now even the gods have turned their faces, closing the underworld to the seers. If the gods have abandoned the people, there is no hope - unless it comes in the form of a young girl who is learning to Dream of Power.
