The Named

Ratha's Creature, the first book in The Named series by Clare Bell, follows the story of Ratha, a young female prehistoric big cat who is a member of the Named, a clan of intelligent and sentient cheetah-like creatures. Ratha discovers the secret of fire, which she calls 'The Red Tongue,' and learns to control it, giving her clan an advantage over other animals and rival clans. However, her discovery is met with fear and resistance from her own clan members, leading to her exile. Throughout her journey, Ratha struggles with the responsibilities of her discovery, her own identity, and the challenges of survival. She faces numerous adversaries, including the predatory Un-Named cats. Eventually, Ratha must confront the leader of her clan to prove the worth of her discovery and to fight for her rightful place within the clan. The book explores themes of innovation, leadership, and the complexities of societal acceptance of change.
