It was the desire for liberty of conscience that inspired the Pilgrims to brave the perils of the long journey across the sea, to endure the hardships and dangers of the wilderness, and with God’s blessing to lay, on the shores of America, the foundation of a mighty nation ... . Like the early Pilgrims he came to enjoy religious freedom; but, unlike them, he saw—what so few in his time had yet seen—that this freedom was the inalienable right of all, whatever might be their creed. He declared it to be the duty of the magistrate to restrain crime, but never to control the conscience. “The public or the magistrates may decide,” he said, “what is due from man to man; but when they attempt to prescribe a man’s duties to God, they are out of place, and there can be no safety; for it is clear that if the magistrate has the power, he may decree one set of opinions or beliefs today and another tomorrow; as has been done in England by different kings and queens, and by different popes and councils; so that belief would become a heap of confusion."
Tia, the last Sky Child with demonic powers, had committed the unforgivable crime. She killed a policeman by biting his throat out. She should have been executed on the spot since in the country of Brein Amon justice was swift, but a Sky Child born with ancient demonic powers is more valuable alive than dead.

The Regents, a powerful, old-money South Georgia family, are involved in the lucrative naval stores turpentine industry, as well as being a major player in the financial world in the South in 1925.
However, when a rattlesnake bite kills a key turpentine worker supervisor and leaves his daughter orphaned, the lives of Reginald and Naomi Regent, owners of the huge turpentine conglomerate, will forever be changed.
Len, one of the Regent brothers, after having learned about the wild horses of the West, moved to Utah shortly after the turn of the twentieth century with a deep concern for that animal’s existence. Little does he realize that what just occurred in South Georgia will profoundly affect his life as well.
Thus, the stage is set for a heart-warming saga that passes through nearly eight decades and three generations, finally concluding with an interesting twist in 2008.
An enjoyable read with just the right amount of romance, intrigue, mystery, friendships and history surrounding the brutal politics of the wild horse of the West makes this a very difficult book to put down and equally hard to forget.
