> "The Mystery holds an endless number of realities, an infinite array of
> possibilities," she said. "You will become aware of some, more than most
> men ever will."
>
> The prophetic words of a beautiful shape shifter set Sanders Tahchee forth
> to carry out his life's purpose. An enigmatic journeyman, he travels
> through the world, unfettered from the tethers of time, space, or form.
> Yet he is bound to a single purpose; to search for stories of the sacred
> things that humans have forgotten.
>
>
>
> Award-winning authors Gabriel Horn and Amy Krout-Horn combine creative
> forces to bring us Transcendence, (138 pp, TPB $16.99), a contemporary
> novella steeped in the universal truths of traditional indigenous wisdom.
>
> As an activist for the spiritual rights of indigenous peoples, and an
> outspoken defender of the natural world, some have called Gabriel Horn
> (White Deer of Autumn) an agitator and militant, others a warrior and
> wisdomkeeper. He is, most notably, an eclectic writer, whose body of work
> includes Native Heart, Contemplations of a Primal Mind, and The Book of
> Ceremonies. Amy Krout-Horn, Oieihake Win (Last Word Woman) has resided in
> two worlds; the world of the sighted and the world of the blind. She has
> been a writer in both of them. A staunch advocate for social and
> environmental justice, she writes and lectures on native history and
> culture, diabetes and disability, and humanity's connection and commitment
> to Mother Earth.

>>From the mysterious white sand island of his boyhood, to frozen wind-swept
>>prairie plains, along misty pine-covered coasts, and through the shadowy
>>depths of tropical rain forests, Sanders Tahchee sojourns, the spirit of
>>each collected tale protected within a special object, all carried within
>>a mystical black bundle. But as Tahchee grows older and believes that his
>>life's purpose is nearing completion, he discovers that his destiny still
>>lies on the distant horizon. Now, as time speeds up, the end of the Fourth
>>World drawing ever closer, he must release to humanity, the spirits in his
>>bundle.

> MariJo Moore, celebrated Cherokee author/poetess, says of Transcendence,
> "There has never been a more exacting time than now for this book. Sacred,
> mysterious, teaching, giving, expanding, and explaining."
>
>
>
> When the bundle is empty, Tahchee returns to the circle where the journey
> began, the circle where he must finally face the emptiness of his own
> heart. Will the one, who might fill it, be waiting there?
>

> Stephan Martin, author, Cosmic Conversations, says, ".a journey into the
> heart of the Mystery as seen through native eyes. Stirringly powerful and
> beautifully written .a living reminder of the power of story and of native
> ways of relating to ourselves, each other, and the Earth."

>
> Vice president and senior scholar of the Poynter Institutute for Media
> Studies, Dr. Roy Peter Clark, refers to the novella as, ".rendered in
> language so beautiful that it fills up the empty spaces in our collective
> souls."
>
> Transcendence is a mesmerizing book of magical realism seamlessly woven
> with threads of primal wisdom. It will reacquaint readers with the
> profound beauty of our mother planet, while turning their mind's eye to
> rarely realized realms of possibility. Open the pages of
> Transcendence, and release its stories into your world.
