OLDER FICTION
Friesner, Esther

Spirit's Chosen

(3) YA Shaman Himiko (Spirit's Princess) returns to find her clan devastated by an Ookami invasion and her mother rendered dangerously unstable by her son Noboru's kidnapping. A voyage to rescue her brother leads to Himiko's own enslavement, and seeing Ookami injustices moves her to try to change them. Himiko's pensive, engaging first-person narration connects readers to the mystical ancient-Japan setting.
