Review\n"What sets this coming-of-age tale apart from others is that it offers an authentic look at indigenous culture and myth, Lakota specifically. As Aiyana learns about her people and how important her background is, the reader meets fascinating characters from folklore and learns a few words from the Lakota language (there is a glossary at the back to help with pronunciation and definitions). Having stories such as this is vital on multiple levels. Not only do they provide diverse stories told by authentic voices, but they also help readers who may be struggling with their identity learn to accept who they are. For indigenous readers, there is a true reflection of themselves and their culture, and for those who are not indigenous, they have a hero to connect with and learn from." - The Beat\nIf Aiyana hears one more traditional Lakota story, she'll scream! More interested in her social media presence than her Native American heritage, Aiyana is shocked when she suddenly finds herself in a magical world-with no cell coverage!\nPursued by the trickster Raven, Aiyana struggles to get back home, but is helped by friends and allies she meets along the way. Her dangerous journey through the Spirit World tests her fortitude and challenges her to embrace her Lakota heritage. But will it be enough to defeat the cruel and powerful Raven?
