Synopsis

The ancient sites of Mesoamerica showcase an incredible past, where indigenous peoples, without any outside influence, built cities of unparalleled beauty and size compared to Europe at that time. The notion that America is a continent without history is clearly misguided when one considers the archaeological splendor of these mighty cities. After delving into the colorful myths and legends, I became particularly fascinated by the legend of Quetzalcoatl, the Plumed Serpent. Described as a black-bearded white man, Quetzalcoatl was said to have appeared a thousand years before the European invasion, serving as a teacher, inventor, architect, and painter. He eventually left Mexico, promising to return. When Hernán Cortés landed in Mexico in March 1519 with just 600 men, he faced no resistance because the indigenous people believed he was Quetzalcoatl returning. This tragic mistake led to the downfall of a great civilization.

My novel, may appeal to readers of historical action novels. I thoroughly enjoyed both writing and reading it. Set in Mexico during the first millennium A.D., the story follows Loka, a young Toltec destined to become the High Chief of his nation. During his manhood trials, Loka discovers a shipwrecked European. The Toltec tribe, oppressed by a powerful city-state, is on the brink of collapse. Loka and his newfound friend unite the Toltec people to challenge the mighty city-state, weaving a tale of adventure, cultural struggle, and unity.
