The Warpath (People of the Longhouse Book 4) Kindle Edition

4.2 4.2 out of 5 stars 146 ratings

All was not well in the lands of the Erie/Long Tails People, on the western shore of Lake Ontario and around Niagara Falls. Tucked between two growing unions, the mighty Great League and the newly formed alliance of the Wyandot to the north, the Long Tails tried to remain neutral, playing for time, doing little while earning no respect from their powerful neighbors on either side.However there were those whom such state of shameful neutrally hurt, even though Aingahon’s reasons for hating the Great League were personal, his desire to take the warpath originating in a thirst for revenge. Leading a serious faction of rebellious elements from his town and its surroundings, he was determined to make the enemies of his people pay; still he got nowhere, until Tsutahi, the mysterious girl from the woods, had crossed his path, changing his world in ways he could never have foreseen.Back in the lands of the Great League, the generation of younger leaders, Ganayeda and Okwaho – not to mention Ogteah, the newcomer facing new troubles and challenges – sensed the winds of change as well. The relationship between the Five Nations, conducted just like the Great Peacemaker’s legacy prescribed, wasn’t enough, not anymore. A closer cooperation between the nations might be needed, a mutual help and support, even if it came to sending reinforcements and fighting in wars that were not strictly theirs. The War Chief’s sons’ way of going about pushing their plans was as unconventional as it was forceful and decisive. To bend laws and customs was not the same as breaking them. Or so they thought, heading toward the inevitable clash with the notorious Long Tails from the west, a clash of proportions neither side could have foreseen or foretell.

Full content visible, double tap to read brief content.

Zoe Saadia is the author of several novels of pre-Columbian Americas. From the architects of the Aztec Empire to the founders of the Iroquois Great League, from the towering pyramids of Tenochtitlan to the longhouses of the Great Lakes, her novels bring long-forgotten history, cultures and people to life, tracing pivotal events that brought about the greatness of North and Mesoamerica.

Having researched various pre-contact cultures of this continent for more than a decade, she is convinced that it's a shame that such a large part of history was completely overlooked, by historical fiction most of all.

Both Americas have an extremely rich, diverse, fascinating history long before this continent came to contact with the rest of the world

So her professional motto is set. America has not been 'discovered' by other continents, not yet. Maybe not ever. Not in her novels

If you enjoy tales about long ago Native Americans like I do, then THE WARPATH (People of the Longhouse Book 4) is the book you are looking for. It is a tale set on the western shore of the Great Sparkling Water (Lake Ontario) but will also take you to other beautiful areas not the least of which is the Thundering Water (Niagara Falls). It is the ending of the People of the Longhouse series. Full of suspense, history, romance and beautiful locations, you will marvel at the way the story is told. Is the Great League's Peace about to unravel and come apart? But how? And who is behind such a terrible thing? The ending will be a complete surprise.

Sadly in this last book, I am saying goodbye to some characters that I have "watched" grow up, if only through words, and have become great people through trial after trial. With that being said let me say goodbye to Two Rivers, Tadodaho, Tekeni, Seketa, Onheda, Hainteroh, Kahontsi, Jikonsahseh, Hionhwatha, Sgenedu, Anitas, Anowara, Kentika, Ganayeda, Okwaho, Osweda, Iheks, Jideah, Migisso, Akweks, Ogteah, Gayeri, Aingahon, Tsutahi, Tauini, Anea, Akweks, Ohanda, Atuye, Teyada, Thenaintonto, Yakwe, Tsutare, Andauk and others. These are wonderful people and I will miss them dearly.

I am of Tsalagi (Cherokee) descent and though they did not mention my blood heritage, I have read and loved all of these books starting with The Peacemaker series. Yet this last book in the People of the Longhouse series had the best ending that could have ever been written. It brought to an end a true and rich period of history. Zoe Saadia is brilliant in the research of the characters and creates two separate but yet linked series that will keep you reading well into the night. Each book can be read separately but do yourself a favor and read both series starting with The Peacemaker and continuing through the The Warpath to get the most out of these brilliantly written series'.

As all of Zoe Saadia stories this one was really good. I have read 4 of this series and the Peace maker series. I like the characters and although the names are hard to pronounce, they are interesting characters.

I had a hard time putting this book down. Very good book. Why does Amazon insist on so many words for a review?

Good story but I did not care for so much modern language.. More English Teacher than 1900th century Native American Indian.. The first Zoe Saadia book I was totally disappointed in.

Karah is one of the better authors of American pre-history novels. She makes the story interesting and keeps me reading.
Reviewed in the United States on June 27, 2016
Another excellent story by Zoe Saadia. Having finished the 'People of the Longhouse' series, I plan to begin reading her other books as well. Her stories show great imagination while not sacrificing historical context. If you like stories of the past and in particular stories of Native American past, you should read this series.

I liked the in-depth study of the 5 Iroquois nation. I’m now on the last book in the series. I wish there were more. I will be reading my more by this author.

5.0 out of 5 stars All's fair in love and war...
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on November 24, 2016
This may be my favourite book from the whole series so far. Not only does it have (slight spoiler) an incredible set-piece battle between the Iroquois and the Long-tails, but it also contains what has to be my absolute favourite couple of the entire series, in the form of Aingahon and Tsutahi.

Scheming against his own tribe's leadership to start a war against the Iroquois league, Aingahon (the same guy who tried to shoot Tekeni in the last book) runs into an orphaned deaf girl living wild in the woods. When he realises that Tsutahi is an excellent long-distance shot with a bow, he realises that she can be of help in dealing with his rivals and making sure that the war against the Iroquois takes place. Tsutahi, endearingly amoral and more than happy to pick off inconvenient politicians at long range in return for cakes and shoes, has to be my favourite character in the whole series.

Unfortunately for them, the Iroquois are not entirely unaware of their plans, and Ganayeda, Ogteah and Okwaho are rounding up their own forces ready to push the Long-tails back if they try an invasion. While it's nice to see Ganayeda getting to do more than just the drudge work, I've got to admit that I was kind of rooting for the Long-tails, just because I liked Aingahon and Tsutahi so much...

Anyhow, I won't give away the result of the great battle - read the book for yourself and find out!
