About the Book

This novel is a passionate, intimate journey into a classical world of intrigue and courage.

It expresses glimpses of harmony among the peoples that created alliances and possibilities for new life in distant lands. The hero, Sundele, is caught up in the clashes of empires that are full of blood-thirsty, loathsome endeavors who prevailed to extend their challenging powers. The novel is a bold, exciting saga of a proud, flamboyant, courageous prince who rises above the thundering turbulence of international conflicts in search of his “love woman,” Quinoxa. He searches far and wide for ten years, engaging in struggles and mind-bending horrors on battlefields that force him to wonder about and envision a more beautiful world, one that is enwrapped in peace and human kindness. When he found his beautiful Quinoxa, he journeyed to that world of peace and comfort in the Americas and became a dedicated leader of a people called the Olmec.
