Sky Knife is a young man cursed with an unlucky name - a name his mother

saw in a vision and pledged that her son would bear, to honor whatever

destiny the gods had decreed. He hasn't the luck to take one of the

usual paths charted for his people: farmer, soldier, merchant - all

these roads are closed to him. The only hope for him lies in service at

the King's Temple, where - he hopes - the gods will make clear his

purpose in the world. But as a novice priest he has little hope of

fulfilling his destiny. That is, until a human sacrifice goes horribly

wrong, priests begin to die, and the skies fill with dangerous portents

and visions. Magic of all sorts seems to cling to Sky Knife like a

shroud, but if he is daring and lucky enough, he may just find out the

answer - and, in doing so, win a place among his people. Sky Knife is a

compelling and evocative portrait of ancient Mayan culture.
