#414 of 8,085 books · #85 in Fantasy
Won the Locus Award for Best Fantasy Novel (1989). Also shortlisted or longlisted for 3 other awards.
Red Prophet is the second book in the historical fantasy series. Since the age of eleven, when he saw the white men murder his father, the Red Indian Lolla-Wossiky has been a pathetic drunk. His brother, Ta-Kumsaw, wishes to see whites confined to the eastern lands. But Governor Bill Harrison of the rough frontier town of Carthage has far more brutal plans for the Indians. When he puts those plans into action, he unwittingly brings young Alvin Miller—a very special white boy with extraordinary magical powers—to Lolla-Wossiky and Ta-Kumsaw. And so begins the next stage of Alvin's education.
