What People are saying
LOCAL
“Mapuana Makia handles the story adeptly and has a deliberate clarity that helps the listener absorb sections exploring Hawaiian culture and mythology. Her commitment to that tone and pacing also makes clear the book is a memoir, handling the sometimes challenging subject matter as a retelling; never going too far to infuse dramatic flair. She instead lets the author's words carry the weight. This is not to say her read lacks depth or flavor, though. She's an excellent choice for the material.”—Booklist
HULA
"Narrator Mapuana Makia voices the women central to the story with the strength, passion, and pain that fuel them. Makia's deft handling of the frequent Hawaiian words and dialect perfectly evokes the culture and people of Hilo."
