Shaylae of the Gentle Heart
A three-thousand-year old war between two distant planets has found a new battle ground: Earth. Shaylae Lucero, a beautiful fourteen-year-old Navajo girl, who has been isolated from her culture, finds herself thrust into the middle of this war. The Dark Ones, ancient enemies of the Navajo, have found her and have mistaken her for their mortal enemy, Changing Woman, the Sacred Mother of the Navajo. During Shaylae’s Kinaalda, the puberty ceremony for Navajo girls, Changing Woman visits her and charges her with resolving this conflict. Initially reluctant to accept this mission, she soon realizes that she has no choice—the Dark Ones have kidnapped her parents, top researchers in the area of hyperspace. Before destroying Earth, the Dark Ones first want access to this new technology. With the help of her two friends, Ayanna and Micah, she learns of the richness of her heritage and discovers she has access to the ancient powers of the Navajo. Using these new-found powers, twice she is able to thwart the Dark Ones efforts to capture her, but is she ready for the final, cataclysmic conflict aboard their interstellar ship?
