Book Description

September 6, 2005

El último tomo de la aclamada trilogía de Isabel Allende narra las aventuras de Jaguar y Águila en una tierra exótica, poblada de espíritus y seres misteriosos y cuenta la evolución de una extraordinaria amistad.

Alexander Cold sabe muy bien que su abuela Kate siempre anda en busca de una nueva aventura. Cuando la International Geographic le pide que escriba un artículo sobre los primeros safaris africanos en elefantes, Kate, Alexander y Nadia -- junto con el equipo de fotógrafos de la revista -- deciden adentrarse en las ardientes planicies de Kenya. Sin embargo, no tardan en conocer a un misionario católico que se acerca a ellos para preguntarles si han visto a sus compañeros que, misteriosamente, han desaparecido. Kate, Alexander, Nadia y todo el equipo de la International Geographic deciden ayudarle. Contratan una mujer piloto de la localidad que los lleva a las pantanosas junglas de Ngoubé. Ahí descubren una tribu de pigmeos y entran en un mundo que se revela feroz y sorprendente, un mundo de corrupción, esclavitud y crueldad pero también de nobleza y magia.

Con la ayuda de los poderes mágicos de sus animales totémicos, Jaguar y Águila, Alexander y Nadia se lanzan en una espectacular lucha por restaurar la libertad de los pigmeos.

Editorial Reviews

Review

“A dizzyingly fast and compelling read.” (San Francisco Chronicle )

“Packed with hair-raising near misses and vivid glimpses of Africa’s landscapes, tribal customs, and wildlife.” (Kirkus Reviews )

“With this series, Allende has freely set aside more literary concerns for plot-driven suspense and has succeeded admirably.” (Criticas )

4.0 out of 5 stars Delightful story, September 2, 2005
By 
S. Marucci (Panama, Panama) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This book is very enjoyable. The story is recommended for teens, and in fact, my son (11) read it, finished it and liked it!! Then I decided to read it myself and the story just captured me. The basic story is fiction, but mixed with real issues (environmental, political, etc.) that makes the book very interesting.

1.0 out of 5 stars Se le acabaron las baterias..., December 26, 2004
By 
PCH "Panama" (Panama City, Central America) - See all my reviews
Parece que a Isabel se le han acabado las baterias...y la imaginacion. Nos quedamos todo el libro esperando que aparezcan los seres fantasticos y misteriosos. No es sino al final de la historia (pagina 270) cuando vemos a los miticos animales totemicos aparecer en accion, por unos minutos. Para compensar esta falta de emocion del libro, aparecen como en estampida el Lama y el Chaman de las primeras novelas. En esta ocasion el malo no tiene poderes impresionantes, es un malo comun y corriente...en resumen, el libro es totalmente aburrido y no se compara con los dos primeros. Si alguien se molesta porque he relatado los secretos de la novela en unas cuantas lineas, pues no lea los "reviews", para eso son...no desperdicie su tiempo con este libro.
