An article in Tribal College: Journal of American Indians in Higher Education, offers an overview to the history of Native Americans writing science fiction, with a highlight on Wilson's work:

The author writes, "We’re living in a time that’s witnessing a range of American Indian voices unlike any other in history. These artists are challenging, and thereby changing, the boundaries of what constitutes a Native text and nowhere is that more prevalent than in the world of science fiction. Last year, George Lucas’sStar Wars: A New Hope was dubbed in Navajo, and the fact that this endeavor was so well-received shows that American Indian audiences are unified behind mainstream media that depicts their individual cultures in a positive light. If current book sales are any indication, the sci-fi community is united behind the movement. Let’s work to ensure that tribal college students find these texts. A new frontier for Native fiction is upon us, and they should be exploring it."
