Annotation:
This bittersweet Western adventure is set in the 18^th century, centring on a Native American girl “Weak-one-who-does-not-last”, so named because of a prophecy concerning her and her twin. It was foretold that one of them would die, and one would be the Great One. When her brother dies, she is cast out, and she must prove to them that she is meant to be the Great one, as she sets out to avenge her father. When she is captured by the Pawnee, she realises she still has a lot to learn.
