Reviews"In seinem umfassenden Herangehen istTell Halaf V&lsa" wie eine Werbung für den Archäologenberuf. So mancher wird nach der Lektüre die Lust verspüren, sofort in ferne Länder aufzubrechen und sich der Erforschung unbekannter Welten und Altertümer hinzugeben. Was will man mehr?"Christoph Tempel in: Museumsjournal 1/2011 "Ein Lichtstreif am musealen Forschungshorizont!"Moritz Kinzel in: IFB 12/2010, "The story is unusual in setting and is full of authentic details relative to the customs, traditions, and daily life of its characters. . . . A reader [is made to feel] that those far-off people actually lived."Saturday Review, "Dark Arrow is charming, well-told, entirely plausible. It brings prehistoric cliff-dwelling people to life and will appeal to young readers who are in search of good books about other cultures."-Alfonso Ortiz, author ofTewa World: Space, Time, Being, and Becoming in a Pueblo Society  , "The story is unusual in setting and is full of authentic details relative to the customs, traditions, and daily life of its characters. . . .

SynopsisYounger Brother, a Tewa Pueblo Indian boy, lives in a remote time in what is now New Mexico. His strongest desire is to grow up to be a great warrior or hunter and to win an honorable name. He is nearly killed by a mysterious black arrow, when as part of the Indian ceremony of becoming a man, he goes to the Sacred Mountains to deliver a prayer plume. Finally, Younger Brother performs a breathtaking act that saves his village from destruction and wins him a name. Only then does he learn who tried to thwart him with the dark arrow. The character of Younger Brother can be recognized in his descendants, who still live in pueblos along the upper Rio Grande.
