Forest of the Pygmies|Isabel Allende

Overview

The final installment of Isabel Allende's celebrated
trilogy of the journeys of Jaguar and Eagle soars with radiant settings,
spirits, beings, and the transformation of an extraordinary friendship, as
Alexander and Nadia embark on mission in Kenya that begins as a search for
elephants and ends up exposing a system of injustices.


Alexander Cold knows all too well his grandmother Kate is
never far from an adventure. When International Geographic commissions
her to write an article about the first elephant-led safaris in Africa, they
head--with Nadia Santos and the magazine's photography crew--to the blazing, red
plains of Kenya.

Days into the tour, a Catholic missionary approaches their
camp in search of his companions who have mysteriously disappeared. Kate,
Alexander, Nadia, and their team, agreeing to aid the rescue, enlist the help
of a local pilot to lead them to the swampy forests of Ngoubé. There they
discover a clan of Pygmies who unveil a harsh and surprising world of
corruption, slavery, and poaching.


Alexander and Nadia, entrusting the magical strengths of
Jaguar and Eagle, their totemic animal spirits, launch a spectacular and
precarious struggle to restore freedom and return leadership to its rightful
hands.
