Description

Cahuac of the Aracan; mightiest of the ancestor-heroes and son of Lady Moon herself. Long were his journeys and many were his deeds. These are but a few of the mythic tales of his days, from wrestling wayward Sun back on its course, to battling shadows in the deep places to return life to the land.

I originally reviewed this as part of a set of stories in Pure Escapism, Volume One. I thought I'd repost my review here, in a slightly edited format for anyone who missed it.

"Cahuac and the Sun," reminded me so much of Native American myths (although clearly not set in that milieu, at least not in this universe) that I could see Mr. Warwick writing a believable mythological background for a world of his own making. It was completely original, but with themes and elements so familiar that if one slipped it into a book containing hunter-gatherer or early agriculturist myths, not many would suspect it was not authentic myth.
