- W4225960044 abstract "Reviewed by: The Lost Dreamer by Lizz Huerta April Spisak Huerta, Lizz The Lost Dreamer. Farrar, 2022 [384p] Trade ed. ISBN 9781250754851 $18.99 E-book ed. ISBN 9781250754868 $10.99 Reviewed from digital galleys R* Gr. 8-10 Indir knows that if the new king finds a reason to do away with Dreamers altogether, he will, as he has no respect for this traditional, woman-centered ability of experiencing more than reality via truth-dreaming. Meanwhile, Saya, whose mother has kept her untrained, has had little opportunity to develop her Seeing powers. Though Indir has unexpectedly lost her abilities and Saya is just discovering her own, each are hiding secrets, and they are driven by encroaching patriarchal rule to risk revealing them. In doing so, they just might discover that they are inextricably tied to each other in more ways than a shared magical ability. The ancient Mesoamerican setting for this complex fantasy is a stunner, exquisitely described in subtle, steady ways that ultimately build to a full world with histories, cultural details, mythology, and politics. Inevitably, there are modern overlaps—women's abilities and gifts being squashed by patriarchal structures is certainly not only found in ancient cultures. Huerta, however, leaves these connections for the reader to make, trusting her compelling dual protagonists to offer a tale of a time and place that may feel familiar but is not a stand-in for the modern world: Indir and Saya are developed to tell no story but their own.
