"I couldn't put it down, although I don't usually expect much from this kind of thing. I got completely involved with Red Willow and Masheka and enjoyed the book immensely. The adventure was impelling and spiritually both subtle and direct. I especially like Red Willow's personal word - it's a powerful chant. (I wonder if folks are trying it for themselves.)
- Larry Siegel

"I will enjoy reading the book again and again. It lifts my heart. Filled with love, compassion, adventure, and devotion, it filled my heart with gladness and peace. I loved the book and just did not want to put it down. "
- Kathleen in MA

"A great adventure beautifully done. A real pleasure to read. The reader lives the moment by moment struggle of Native American life in the early 1800's and learns the ancient ways and powerful medicine symbols."
- Ray McBride

Red Willow's Quest awakened me to the sacred inherent awareness of purpose I felt as a child. Amazingly, several days after reading it, I am still glowing with Red Willow's story and the lessons she imparted to me. I identified with her in many ways, because of my own experiences. I believe Red Willow has given me deeper respect for myself and other women.

Red Willow reinforced or validated ways I used to look inwardly for guidance. And she valued her inner guidance enough to follow it.. Red Willow reminded me of the strength and love of aloneness, and that respect for self (and my inner worlds) is part of Soul awareness. I stand straighter, believe in myself and take my own quest more seriously. I'm sure many women, young and old, will be lifted by your telling her tale in Red Willow's Quest. Thank you for writing this Native American story from a female point of view and making it as realistic as possible. It must have taken lots of research."

"The words in Red Willow's Quest have become part of my spiritual awakening and rebirth. I know I will read this book again and again - for inspiration and joy. I truly enjoyed every page and didn't want the story to end. This book speaks many powerful messages to me. The most important message is the encouragement to continue on the path I feel I am destined for, regardless of what others say, think or do.

Often, when somewhat discouraged or fearful, I remember Red Willow's strength and am encouraged to continue seeking what I feel so deeply. Thank you for the gift of your thoughts, wisdom and spirituality. I will continue to check your web site for further inspiration and your newsletter. I would also like to hear you speak, so I will watch for that too.

"Red Willow's Quest took me on a beautiful journey, for which I wanted to thank you from the heart. I read Red Willow's story with much enthusiasm and was completely drawn into the story. It was such a special experience for me. I haven't been able to stay with a book, a story, for some time. I forgot all about my everyday worries, felt as light and passionate as a child. Maybe the impact was such because of my own strong bond with the native past."
- Christine W.

"Thanks for the immeasurable inspiration. I thoroughly enjoyed the Book. It was fascinating to watch Red Willow's single-minded determination to follow her Vision Quest as it enabled her to pass her tests, and to conquer her fears and the rest of her little self. We saw her thus transformed into Vision Woman, the maturing coworker, to whom all that she had sacrificed could then be returned in abundance. It is an intriguing story, offering invaluable inspiration to each of us who has consciously embarked on the journey. I can now see more clearly that my yearning for freedom is for the freedom to find and follow my own Quest, and I've found are renewed passion for doing so."
- Raymund, Jamaica

"Loved your book. Marnie, my oldest daughter, was visiting us last week and she couldn't put it down either. Which meant we had to run after her twins (15 months old) while she finished it. Marnie wanted me to tell you she really enjoyed the book too. So far you are a big hit with our family!"
- Margy, Portland, Oregon

"These characters have a life of their own and all are alive as I read about them. When I first heard you talk about Red Willow several years ago something went straight to my heart. There was a connection. It's the way I still feel about this book-Red Willow's story. I can't put it down. Red Willow is a remarkable squaw. You certainly did a lot of research. It is a pleasure to read you."
- Josette in WA

- Jan Fitzgereld in MA

"Red Willow's Quest is an inspiration and I applaud you for writing it!" I just finished reading it for the second time. I feel your book is a perfect illustration how Spirit always finds us exactly where we are, and speaks to us in a way that is perfect for the time and culture in which we life. Especially if we are willing to listen.

I'm a long time ECKANKAR member (Religion of the Light and Sound of God) and I greatly appreciate the way you have artfully woven the principles of ECK (Spirit) into your narrative. I only wish to share the pleasure I have received reading your great book with friends I care for. Will you be publishing anything else soon? My wife and I have searched for other work and found none.

Thank you, again, Heidi for this amazing story. Most sincerely and with the love of the Mahanta,

"I have just finished reading your new book and want to tell you how much I enjoyed it! . I found it hard to put down. In fact, I was sorry to reach the end! I can see a sequel there. Didn't you tell me that it was a past life of yours?. I've had several lives as an Indian. Your writing is very clean and effective. No waste. No overabundance of description or filler words. Just lots of good action, good pacing, interesting events. I especially loved the great sequences. Thank you very much for writing it."
- Reader in CO

"Wow! I am impressed! I read your book last month and it was SO good, it reminded me of The Clan of the Cave Bear stories-I really felt like I was there, and the story flowed so smoothing. I liked the ending, too-where things weren't all wrapped up and it wasn't the "goody-goody" ending."
- Carol in CA

"I just wanted to tell you how much I enjoyed your book. As much as I wanted to see Vision Woman with Masheka, I didn't want the book to end. I hope there will be more about her in addition to the other books you are working on."
- Eve L

"Hi! It was very exciting to receive a copy of your book and it felt like a blessing. Thank you so much. I couldn't wait to read it and have almost finished it. It rolls along so easily and I felt so at home with it. I have remembered 3 lifetimes as Native American and a couple during the Viking era."
