"In More's debut YA novel—set in an alternate universe—a young woman desires to become the first female warrior of her tribe. She's determined to prove herself but doesn't quite know how; she will need to draw upon the Lenape spirits to defeat a mythological creature that has been unleashed on the world. Thomas More cleverly combines futuristic technology with Native American imagery in descriptions of Mannahatta and gives dazzling details to his intricately crafted universe with plenty to explore in this action-packed saga!"—Kirkus Reviews
"More's first in his Mannahatta series posits an intriguing science fiction-fueled alternative history where America's indigenous people thrive thanks to incredible technologies gifted to them by the mysterious Star Walkers. Sakima is a futuristic indigenous warrior who seeks to prove herself in this multiverse adventure. It's clear that More has a deep respect for the Lenape and indigenous peoples of America and this is an intriguing take on a hero's journey and her motto—why live, if you can't be who you were meant to be—rings true."—BookLife Reviews
