Brother Wind (The Ivory Carver Trilogy Book 3) Kindle Edition
In the tribe of the First Men, courageous, beautiful Kiin, an accomplished ivory carver, is finally content with her hard-won life, which includes twin sons and a loving warrior husband. When she is suddenly pulled back into her nightmarish former existence as slave to the Raven, shaman of the Walrus People, her husband’s brother, Samiq, vows to bring her back to their tribe. Across the land, Kukutux, the wife of a Whale Hunter, finds the loss of her husband and the hostility of her clan too much to bear. The lives of Kiin, Samiq, and Kukutux, and the paths of their tribesmen will converge in a final dramatic confrontation that tests the strength of their hearts and spirits against the cruelty of man, nature, and fate. Brother Wind is the final book of the Ivory Carver Trilogy, which also includes Mother Earth Father Sky and My Sister the Moon.

About the author
Sue Harrison grew up in Michigan’s Upper Peninsula and graduated summa cum laude from Lake Superior State University with a bachelor of arts degree in English language and literature. At age twenty-seven, inspired by the cold Upper Michigan forest that surrounded her home, and the outdoor survival skills she had learned from her father and her husband, Harrison began researching the people who understood best how to live in a harsh environment: the North American native peoples. She studied six Native American languages and completed extensive research on culture, geography, archaeology, and anthropology during the nine years she spent writing her first novel, Mother Earth Father Sky, the extraordinary story of a woman’s struggle for survival in the last Ice Age. A national and international bestseller, and selected by the American Library Association as one of the Best Books for Young Adults in 1991, Mother Earth Father Sky is the first novel in Harrison’s critically acclaimed Ivory Carver Trilogy, which includes My Sister the Moon and Brother Wind. She is also the author of Song of the River, Cry of the Wind, and Call Down the Stars, which comprise the Storyteller Trilogy, also set in prehistoric North America. Her novels have been translated into thirteen languages and published in more than twenty countries. Harrison's newest novel, The Midwife's Touch, was released February 7, 2023 by Open Road Integrated Media and Shanty Cove Books. Harrison lives with her family in Michigan’s Eastern Upper Peninsula.

Why was it a struggle? I was upset with a few of the selfish characters and their lies. If you've already read the first two books, Mother Earth Father Sky and My Sister the Moon, then you already know that Gray Bird is a character that everyone hates! He's abusive, he's greedy, he's a liar, he's a manipulator. He makes my skin crawl. I admit, I nearly threw the book across the room a few times. For me to get that upset about the storyline says a lot about how well-written this book, this entire trilogy, is.
I also struggled with the many subplots that went on throughout the book. They all tied in together rather neatly, and I knew that as I read. It bounced back and forth between two subplots, then jumped over to another. It's fine to have a couple of different subplots in a book, and I don't care for more than 2. But with this book, how it all tied together, I learned quickly to accept it.
Overall, it is an excellent book.
