Spiral - Murray Margaret C.

Spiral, novel of magic realism and epic adventure set in the ancient American Southwest. At the end of a culture that built structures as big as the Roman Coliseum when medieval Europe was still in the Dark Ages, on a high desert landscape of brooding wind and dark storm clouds that never drop rain, the Elders threaten to sacrifice an infant boy to placate the sun dagger and thus end the drought. Meanwhile young Willow waits by the dry, dusty Chaco riverbed for her lover. But when he finally comes, it is to say goodbye. Against the backdrop of the Anasazi Southwest, Spiral plunges the reader into a whole gripping, enchanted world spiraling in crisis. Spiral is a prequel to Margaret C. Murray's acclaimed 2008 novel, Sundagger.net (WriteWords Press, 2008).
