    The Dark Kachinas Series

    By J. R. Rada

    About this series

    Kuskurza contains "The Path to Kuskurza" and "White Indian." These stories serve as stand-alone prequels to the dark fantasy, Kachina.

    The ancient cliff-dwelling Anasazi Indians left the safety of their cliff dwellings in the southwest United States centuries ago and vanished in history. "The Path to Kuskurza" tells the story of one of the last Anasazi, a young boy named Lutakawi, who chooses to make the dangerous journey back to the Anasazi world of creation far beneath the surface of this world.

    However, the remaining Anasazis' hopes for a peaceful re-integration are destroyed by the oppressive Bow Clan in the world of creation. These warriors serve the Dark Kachinas and Lutakawi finds himself caught up in the war between the Bow Clan and the Sun Clan to try and preserve his people.

    In "White Indian," is a western horror story. One of the Sun Clan has returned to the surface searching for warriors to aid his enslaved people in the world of creation. He is unprepared for the harshness of surface weather, though, and nearly dies in the desert.

    Hank Rider, a small rancher in the Southwest, finds the Sun Clansman near death and tries to nurse him back to health. However, not only must he face townspeople who want to see any Indian dead, he must also fight members of the Bow Clan who have tracked the Sun Clansman to the surface to kill him before he can spread the secret of the world of creation.

    Kuskurza also contains a sneak peek of Kachina, a dark fantasy about the ancient gods of the Anasazi.

      Remembering five missing weeks can save one world and doom another. When David Purcell is rescued from a cave, he is missing for five weeks and has no memory of his time in the cave. He is also free of any signs of starvation, injury or cave blindness. Adam Maho is an elderly Native American who has seen visions of Kuskurza, the Third World of Hopi creation stories. Adam's visions show him that the ancient evils that have been long-believed dead were imprisoned and not destroyed.  If the weakening prison fails, the dark kachinas will be free to once again bring death and devastation to the world. David is the key to keeping the dark kachinas imprisoned, and the dark kachinas have sent the Bow Clan on a suicide mission to kill him. David has flashes of memory from his time in the caverns, but he can't believe what Adam tries to explain to him. When David becomes a suspect in the murder the Bow Clan commits, he flees to the Hopi settlement of Oraibi. The Bow Clan pursue him and capture Adam's granddaughter. David turns the tables on the Bow Clan and takes the fight to them as he remembers more of his time in the caverns. He journeys to Kuskurza on a rescue mission and to find a way to stop the dark kachinas.
