Praise for Raven’s Daughter

Raven’s Daughter is a beautifully written and deeply imaginative story that weaves myth, spirit, and nature into something truly memorable. The story feels realistic, like an ancient tale passed down. It speaks to our connection with the Earth, with each other, and with the stories we carry. The lyrical imagery creates a sense of calm, inviting stillness and reflection. At its heart, the book gently reminds us of our natural belonging and the healing that comes from remembering who we are. More than just a tale, it’s a quiet journey back to wholeness.

“Wendy Halley is a gifted psychotherapist and guide to shamanism.  Turns out she's a crackerjack storyteller, too.  This page-turner, seasoned with sly humor, suspense, and moments of strange and startling beauty and terror, follows the literally mind-bending Hero's Journey of Charlie, a young woman struggling to escape her profound alienation from life.  She's fun to spend time with: intelligent, perceptive, witty, tough, determined.  Through her, we witness the enormous costs of our society's willful forgetfulness of the innate human ability to hear the world's voices, and we're given hope that recovery may yet be possible.”

“I feel like I just ate a star! Raven's Daughter speaks to the critical junction we face at this moment in our human evolution. It points us back home, to the necessity of human connection and the health of the whole living organism, where people and nature thrive together, where music is medicine, and laughter the currency of celebration. Charlie is a frustratingly human and wildly mythological heroine, who makes superpowers from both her weakness and her strength. Raven’s Daughter is a story to help spark our remembering and save our world.”

“Wendy Halley’s book Raven’s Daughter swept me away from the opening chapter. It’s a time transcending story, wonderfully tailored for our present moment.  What is real? What is truth? Are we living a dream or dreaming from a finite life? The answer to these questions are fluid and self-determined. We become what we see. The veil is as thin or thick as we make it. 

What we see determines what we do and what we do determines what we get. Wendy Halley imparts this wisdom and more as she takes us on a spellbinding adventure that is beyond yet within us all. This book is fun, edgy, quick cadenced, and colorful – just like the author herself. Raven’s Daughter brings the depths of spirit to the palm of the reader’s hand. It’s a brilliant book – accessible to anyone willing to pause, look within, and see beyond.”
