Into the Crimson Mist
From the tales of Orenda. Book Two:
After a long winter encampment, Orenda, Nazshoni, Kanuna and Onsi cross the Mississippi river and venture west. Their destination is far and Orenda intends to move the small group of warriors with haste in the hope of reaching an embattled tribe far to the west of the great river.
The plan begins to unravel when they come across a ghost village and then dire forebodings from an old Shaman. There is a shape-shifter in the area and she has been causing much destruction and despair. Orenda attempts to go around the troubled area as he feels tomahawks and arrows are no match against magic. But the Deer Woman is already aware of the warriors' presence in her territory.
If you enjoyed The Bitter Harvest, you'll not want to miss the continuing adventures of Orenda and his small group of heroes.

Into Another Fantastic Book
What do you usually do when your favourite author releases another book? You dive into it, but then remember that it was long since you read the first book, so you open that one and reread it to remember all the characters that you already knew and loved.
But once i reread the Bitter Harvest, and remembered all the characters, it was time to dive in into the crimson mist, and as usual, Oliver Phipps, didn’t disappoint. I was hooked from the second page! (Leave the first one as i had to reread the first book). I was ready for the adventure, but i wasn’t ready for what came like a tsunami and hit me in the face! The plot, the writing style that i love so much, and the characters, that never disappoint and are always there to give you more than what you expected!
Are you ready, to dive into Native American life once again? If yes, grab your gear (cup of tea or coffee, or go for a glass of wine, your choice) and dive in! You’ll be left breathless and excited!

This book was very well written. The attention to detail was refreshing, and the author would describe small mannerisms or facial expressions to bring out the dark and twisted thoughts within the characters’ minds. Mr. Phipps is astonishingly clever! by the way, he introduces his characters. Quite simply, the plot is very good I totally enjoy the destination of this magical world. You should read it, its a very quick read.
