Christophe has been in the New World only a year when his native guides abandon him to flee their Iroquois pursuers. A Huron warrior and elder named Bird soon takes him prisoner, along with a young Iroquois girl, Snow Falls, whose family he has just killed, and holds them captive in his massive village. Champlain's Iron People have only recently begun trading with the Huron, who mistrust them as well as this Crow who has now trespassed onto their land; and her people, of course, have become the Huron's greatest enemy.

If you could sum up The Orenda in three words, what would they be?
Ceremonial real-life exposed.
Who was your favorite character and why?
The Huron leader's trusted friend is loyal and courageous, undaunted, a warrior.
What about the narrators’s performance did you like?
The voices of the three main characters are extremely well differentiated.
Who was the most memorable character of The Orenda and why?
The jesuit priest is so dogged in his missionary work, so disrespectful of the orenda, and his death is correspondingly marked with the respectfulness of his "sauvages".
Any additional comments?
Joseph Boyden brings to life that time in history (around the 16th century).
