Ghost Song
Tales within tales weave and intertwine in a modern piece of myth-making by a very skilled storyteller. This challenging novel complements the award-winning Ghost with another story of the Shaman in the north lands and their terrifying and sometimes cruel magics. Ambrosi, by destiny a Shaman's apprentice and by inclination son of his ageing hunter father, is eventually bound to Bitten-by-a-Fox, viciously condemned to being a Laplander in the light and a wolf in darkness. Salvation for both depends one upon the other. Brilliant, but it'll require stickability.
