Adventures Among The Ancient Maya

IT'S 770 AD. IN WHAT WILL LATER BECOME CENTRAL AMERICA,
THE ANCIENT MAYA HAVE FLOURISHED FOR CENTURIES, BUILDING
A CIVILIZATION OF CULTURE, WONDER, AND INTRIGUE, BUT THEIR
WAY OF LIFE MAY NOT ENDURE FOREVER. . .
The intrepid Mara has left her homeland, Chichen Itza, on a mysterious quest when she is discovered in the jungle by Jorel, the handsome son of the king of Palenque, and his friends. Jorel takes Mara to Palenque and to Ruth, a sage and compassionate shaman. While learning from Ruth's wisdom and connecting with the people of Palenque, Mara finds herself irresistibly drawn to Jorel-and wary of the king's ruthless chief advisor, Caterra. Ruth shares with Mara a powerful secret that will guide her way as Mara navigates enough dangers and adventures to fill more than a lifetime. Learn about the rich cultural traditions and history of the Maya as Mara forges friendships and loves, fights for justice, and blazes her own path through history.
