The Eagle in the Mountain

Elan’s life changed forever when the loud-mouthed raven chose him to go on a journey to save his people. Now returned from his quest, Elan is changed, withdrawn—and will not touch the weapon he is destined to wield. Raven knows that Elan must take up the weapon for his people, or cast it back into the Koosh world through the Door. But Elan will not budge. The invading Koosh loom ever closer, and Elan’s people have no hero to fight for them. So raven turns to Kwa, Elan’s sour yet tough companion. Kwa is determined to prove herself, doing whatever it takes to become the warrior leader her people need her to be. With Chetdyl the wolf by her side, she prepares an attack against the Koosh. But she knows that what she really needs is the weapon Elan refuses to use. If he won’t use it, she will. But the weapon will not bow to her – unless she does as raven says and pushes Elan through the Door herself.
