An even greater evil lurks: the Indigenous people of North America are being hunted and harvested for their bone marrow, which carries the key to recovering something the rest of the population has lost: the ability to dream.<\/p>\n<p>Marc C\u00f4t\u00e9, publisher of Cormorant Books, said: \u201cWe were thrilled when Thunderbird expressed interest in <em>The Marrow Thieves<\/em>, but our thrill quickly gave way to the genuine enthusiasm and excitement Alex Raff\u00e9 brought to our discussions. We could not imagine a better home for the book\u2019s characters and story.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Dimaline added: \u201cBecause <em>The Marrow Thieves<\/em> has become an important work for the Indigenous community, it was essential to find a team who could bring this story to life with a commitment to honor its messages and worldview. Thunderbird has made such a commitment and I am happy to be working with them as this project comes to life and gains an even larger audience.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Thunderbird Entertainment has optioned Cherie Dimaline\u2019s award-winning novel The Marrow Thieves to be adapted for television as a limited series.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":350,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"pmpro_default_level":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[70],"tags":[1574],"class_list":["post-9388","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","","category-top-stories","tag-thunderbird-entertainment","pmpro-has-access"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v21.7 -
