May 2016 Free Book!!
My friend Penina Keen Spinka has recently released her newest Prehistoric — HIDDEN IN MIST, so, of course, I couldn’t resist offering it as our Free Book this month!!
Told like a series of stories in a very authentic voice, Spinka carries us into the lives of Hiawatha and the people of the Five Tribes Confederacy. Spinka’s research makes the story come alive, and the romance and heartache of Hiawatha’s niece Jekonsaseh will keep you turning pages!
Portions of HIDDEN IN MIST are set near (and behind!) Niagara Falls. To have your name included in our Wednesday, May 25 drawing, tell us if you have ever visited Niagara Falls (New York, USA and/or Ontario, Canada)!
Happy Reading!

I visited Niagara Falls during WWII when my family lived in Michigan. We took the boat that went under the falls.
Looking forward to the visit through the book. I have never been there.
I have been to the Falls twice, the first time in 1963. It is very beautiful.
I’ve been several times to the US Side and have done all the attractions. I’ve been one time to the Canadian side.
We visited Niagara Falls from the NY side, took a helicopter ride above it, rode on the ‘Maid of the Mist’ and took loads of photos. Great trip!
I hope you can, Meghan!
It is that, Ang!!
As Emily Dickinson wrote, Brenda, “The best frigate is a book!”
It’s a very good novel, Starshell!
I have never been to the Falls. I have read much of the confederacy.. I am very excited to see this book.. I will buy it, even if I don’t win!!
Always wanted to go and never have. I haven’t been fortunate enough to travel at all besides home and Ky. and WV.
I travel through my books and mind !!
AAKKK!!! Im bouncing around up here. Sounds like a good read. Please put my name in the pot 🙂
Nope. Never been there but I have been told its real loud and wet.
No I have never been but hope to someday. I love reading books even fiction, about my ancestors.
I have always loved stories around prehistoric history or even musings of all our ancestors an After reading Sue Harrisons series of The Inuit ,and Jean Auel Clan of the Cave bear series my hands itch when I hear of more..unfortunately being far from any book store limits things…electronics are great as well
I have not been to Niagara Falls, it sure looks awesome, all that power in water! I live 6 miles from the Canadian border. I live on Lake of the Woods, the northern tip of Minnesota. It is pretty in the summer and fall time. Love the smell of rain when it does rain.
No I have not been there but I have been by the area while passing through. I am very interested in anything at on on the native peoples from this area as well as anything from the areas around Vermont and any tribes between the St Lawrence and U.S. I have some where along the way Native American ancestors. I guess thats why I have always loved your books as well as authors like the Gears and Auel. they give me a glimpse of what my ancestors might have been like.
I have visited Niagara Falls, Ontario a few times. Beautiful.

Yes, numerous times, but not since we’ve had our son, who is 18. When he recently got his driver’s license (finally!) we got him the Michigan enhanced license specifically so that we could take him to Niagra Falls. Now we just need to plan a trip!
Yes, the US side briefly.
No I have not, but that funny think is we are looking to possibly go to Niagara Falls as a family vacation this year!
