Story
A Holy Man, who lives in both this world and the Spirit world, waits hidden in a cave in the canyons, as a newly made woman runs toward him. She flees her would-be suitor, who wants from her more than she can give. The Holy Man and his constant companions, a colony of mice, accept the woman within the cave. She worries that he may be crazy, but given her fear of the man who desires her, maybe crazy is not so bad.

The coastal people struggle to understand the changing world around them: their seer Sunchaser has lost his way to the Spirit World and mammoths continue to disappear.

Story
Golden Fox, a girl barely turned woman, is pursued by her hairy-face father, who will stop at nothing to find her, even if he has to destroy her entire band. He gives one of her relatives the “Poisoned Water,” and in return the woman burns down Golden Fox’s family’s lodges. The band is thus broken. Golden Fox’s grandfather, Eagle Thunder, never wanted to become leader of the band, but when the hairy-face’s poisoned water takes over the minds of many of his peoples, including the Elders, he has no choice. He must lead the remnants of the band or they will die.

A thousand years ago, the mighty Cahokian civilization dominated the North American continent. At the heart of the empire stood a vast city, teeming with tens of thousands of residents, traders, and travelers. The city of Cahokia sent settlers and priests throughout the continent, from Wisconsin to the Gulf of Mexico, carrying word of the power of their gods. People who wouldn't bow to that power were conquered or slaughtered. Power rested in one being, Morning Star, a god resurrected in the body of a living man.

Publisher's Summary
Evolved Publishing brings you a rare glimpse into ancient Native American culture, in the award-winning historical novel, Circles, by Ruby Standing Deer.
With much of the world still undiscovered, a small band of people live a peaceful life, until the dream vision of a young boy, Feather Floating in Water, changes everything. Only nine winters old, Feather's dreams turn his seemingly ordinary childhood into the journey of a lifetime. He must help his people face a terrifying destiny from which they cannot turn away. He must find a way to make his people listen.
Bright Sun Flower, the boy's grandmother, guides his beginnings, teaching him about the Circle of Life, and how without it, no life can exist. But he needs a bigger push, and gets it from a grey wolf and a Great Elder. The boy's journey leads him to discover that the Circle of Life involves all people, all living things, and not just the world he knows.
In the end, an ancient People guide the boy in his visions, toward an unexpected place hidden from outsiders.
This story is steeped in American Indian life, in their beliefs and humor, and in their love of family. It shows how we might benefit from the old ways today.

Beautiful coming of age with a touch of fantasy
I loved this experience. Karen Rose Richter is an accomplished narrator who gives vivid life to these many characters. Her performance is beautiful. Like another reviewer mentioned, her ability to distinguish between genders and all ages, is great, and one never gets confused about who is speaking. Her tone is just right for this story, warm, sometimes funny, but gentle. The story is interesting. I found the book to be like a fable at least in the first half. Feather goes through many incidents and adventures, and he learns lessons from them. Point of view switches when necessary to tell the story that the author wants to tell. So at first it seemed somewhat shallow prose--but that's only if you're comparing it to any other novel you might have read. The depth is in the mix. The second half of the story gets tense and thrilling.
The spiritual practices and shamanism in the book has a feeling of authenticity, and is described in intricate detail, narratively. I'm not sure, but I think the predictive visions are meant to be fantasy. It is a book that unfolds at its own pace. It is not "a western", or any other distinct genre. Of course, as you're listening, your heart breaks for these wise, gentle people whose way of life is about to be wiped off the face of the earth by history. It was impressive that the wise characters in the story make the point several times that not ALL of the invaders are evil. That they will find friends among them. And then that is demonstrated. That kind of grace is rare in books and in life. While I had minor emotional responses to the first half of the book, the second half pays major dividends. There's so much detail about day to day life, and the spiritual lives of the people, their decisions and thought processes, that the effect becomes profound.

Enter a New World (Which Is Really An Old One)
Would you say that listening to this book was time well-spent? Why or why not?
Yes. It's unique. I think there are other Native American stories that take place before the coming of white men, but I haven't read them. I don't believe the author depicted a particular tribe; they were more of an amalgam. I recognized several aspects of Plains Indian culture, although the setting was the Southwest (amongst red canyons).
I would call this historical fantasy, but I guess that depends on your own belief system. There was a wild wolf who acted like a puppy-dog and people communicating through dreams and glowing blue. I would have preferred more grounding in reality. I know many of these "fantasy" elements reflect Native American beliefs, but others I question.
I appreciated Standing Deer's attempt to use terminology her characters would have used, à la James Welch--such as calling horses "big dogs" and buffalo "hump backs." Yet she also described things as being the colors of cinnamon and peach, which would both have been unknown to this tribe. Also the preternatural wisdom and endless questions of our young hero did become a bit irritating over time.
Would you be willing to try another book from Ruby Standing Deer? Why or why not?
Perhaps. I know there are two sequels. I worry that they might get repetitive. I feel like I got my fix.
What three words best describe Karen Rose Richter’s performance?
Clear. Deliberate. Heartfelt. I actually found it too deliberate and sped up to 1.25. But then the high-pitched children's voices sounded extra funny.
Could you see Circles being made into a movie or a TV series? Who should the stars be?
Yes. I would hope they would cast Native American actors! Feather would have to be someone up-and-coming. Adam Beach could play his adoptive father and Irene Bedard could play his mother. Tantoo Cardinal could be his grandmother.

I don't know how to say this...
Given all the five stars to this book, I'm a little afraid to give my opinion. I still have 4 hours to go, and I can't wait to finish it. First of all, the slow cadence of the narrator almost puts me to sleep every time, combined with the slow pace of the story. The subject is most interesting and I've read several books about this fascinating people. I had trouble accepting the almost "holiness" of all the characters, the utopian life to be destroyed by the "bearded ones". I don't deny and I abhor the barbaric treatment of American Indians by the white invaders, but this story does not reflect the reality of human beings, warts and all. It reads more like a lyrical bedtime story. I'll find out what the last 4 hours have to offer.

A refreshing view of history!
Would you listen to Circles again? Why?
Yes, I truly enjoyed listening to the stories of how things were for the Indians. Their outlook on life is very refreshing.
What was one of the most memorable moments of Circles?
I loved the scene where a big flood came in and White Paws helped feather hang onto Mixed Baskets, & she hung onto her mother. Animals helping people, incredible & inspiring!
What does Karen Rose Richter bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?
OMG, this lady's ability to do voices is awesome. She sounded just like Indians speaking, made Feather sound like a little boy. Spoke all the roles clearly & slowly like an Indian would back then. just amazing!
If you were to make a film of this book, what would the tag line be?
Circles of Life
Any additional comments?
I enjoyed this book way more than I thought I would. I admire the author for writing this book. While it may be history to her people, to me, it is like an education. To see into other cultures and give me a better understanding of history. Yet this story is told in an exciting way which makes it a memorable book.

I can't really say whether this is a good book or not as I didn't finish it in the audible version. The narration was so slow and poorly done, I just couldn't continue listening. Perhaps I'll try the readable version.

The Truth Of All That Exists
I think this is a beautifully told story of the Native American way and the true way of all Life as it should be. This story has many messages but most importantly that the Earth is our Mother and she should be respected and honored by us as humans only passing through. I love Feather and his wolf White Paws and how they met. Truly amazing. One of my favorite lessons in this book is about The Pipe of Truth and its true meaning of how it teaches us about the joy of life. The greater good. And Flying Raven, while referring to the lodge said it was like the womb of the Mother and when entering you must say "All my relatives enter with me. This means our animal brothers and sisters, our ancestors, ALL_ OF_ LIFE". There were no wasted words in this book. Everything has a meaning. Overall Life is a Circle. Ruby Standing Deer is such a phenominal author.
Karen Rose Richter did the most amazing job with this book. She has such a diverse voice. She nailed every character's stance and voice. Feather's voice was perfect. Impressive! This is the second time I've had the pleasure of listening to her work.
I would definitely recommend this book to anyone.

What beauty and expanse was written
Where does Circles rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?
I have to find a spot for this near the top.
What other book might you compare Circles to and why?
It reminds me of the People Series by the Michael Gear and Kathleen O’Neal Gear. A series I have followed for years.
Which character – as performed by Karen Rose Richter – was your favorite?
Feather Floating In Water is the main character and his earnest voice, his questioning nature , his heart all won me over.
Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?
When he tries to communicate with his grandmother and well don't want to spoil it, but it is funny, and the things that can happen even in the great cosmic soup.
Any additional comments?
I loved this book and can not wait to dig into the next 2 book in the series. Thank you to such a fabulous writer and narrator for bringing such joy between the headphones.
