(4) YA Despite their differences, Native American Squamiset (or "Old Judas" as he is referred to by the English settlers) and colonial boy Will Poole are drawn together by their visions in the 1643 Connecticut Colony. Ignoring warnings of disloyalty, Will seeks Squamiset's tutelage and friendship, forcing them to flee the settlement when caught. Weed's lengthy descriptive narratives are historically informative but stall the story's action.
