Mana, a young girl of the Kin, happens upon a wounded stranger and decides she has to help him. Her act of kindness thrusts the Kin into a brutal war against a tribe which is not only large and powerful, but unspeakably cruel." "Dickinson published almost fifty books, which fall into three general categories: crime fiction for adults (including the James Pibble series) , speculative and supernatural fiction for older children, and simpler children's books. One of his few other books was the collection Chance, Luck and Destiny (1975) , which he calls "prose and verse, fact and fiction, on the themes of the title". It won the second annual Boston Globe–Horn Book Award for children's nonfiction in 1977. The "Changes" trilogy comprises three early books for children, The Weathermonger, Heartsease and The Devil's Children (1968 to 1970). It was heavily adapted in 1975 as a BBC TV series, The Changes. The trilogy was written in reverse order: The Devil's Children is actually the first book in terms of the trilogy's chronology, Heartsease the second, and The Weathermonger the third.".
