Yes, but it's possible they licensed it in anticipation of the new film, I will check. I did read the novel last year. I'm prepared for major differences between novel and movie.

🦬 Sinakson Trevor Solway's SIKSIKAKOWAN: THE BLACKFOOT MAN will make its U.S. premiere this Saturday at Big Sky Doc Fest in Missoula, Montana.
