Killer of Enemies

YA
Killer of Enemies series.
In the post-apocalyptic trilogy's enthralling final volume, the powers Lozen inherited from her Chiricahua ancestors show her that an assassin is on her trail and that the remaining rulers of Haven plan to destroy her settlement. As before, Lozen's decisions are informed by stories from her Native heritage; appearances by Coyote himself and other supernatural actors keep the boundary between sci-fi and folklore porous.

Killer of Enemies series.
Lozen (Killer of Enemies) leads refugees through the desert toward Valley Where First Light Paints the Cliffs. They face many dangers, and Lozen is afflicted with something her Apache-Chiricahua ancestors called Enemy Sickness, or post-traumatic stress. The sardonic protagonist is as magnetic, the peril as intense, and the invention as fresh as ever as Bruchac develops his dystopian world in intriguing directions.
