When Native American Mythology meets Celtic Druidism in a culture built around Gnostic Christianity, strange things happen! Follow Jamari as he discovers his world, his spirit, his people and his culture. In the world of 2115, nearly 100 years after the Pacific Rim erupted in a series of quakes, the Elk Creek Tribe remains the Pacific Northwest society's best hope of survival. Promoting peace, harmony, and the sharing of resources, the Tribe maintains a ferocious ability to defend itself from outsiders and wildlings. The region has been long-abandoned by the mega-corps who decided that the sparse lands weren't viable investments to rebuild roads and infrastructure to bring back into the fold. The Tribe has learned to live closer to the land, honoring the land and animals in return. Into this mix comes Jamari, a young man of the Elk Creek Tribe who has decided to take on the challenges of The Manhood Rites: a series of mental, emotional, and physical challenges that he must pass before becoming a full citizen of The Tribe. As he undergoes this rigorous training, Jamari also finds himself delving into a new world of self-discovery as his interactions with a mentor unlock passionate desires he never knew he had. Jamari is tasked with participating in an expedition to the Oregon coast where he encounters other peoples who live outside the Tribal influence, sometimes with disastrous consequences. Step in and explore this bold new world through the eyes of a young man encountering life's challenges and triumphs with courage, tenacity, and a tiny bit of fear as the world becomes a much bigger and more powerful force in his life. Watch him grow into his role, even as that role shifts before his very eyes when he develops skills and talents that tell his leaders that he may be a powerful shaman. Can he accept his fate and transform into the respected spiritual leader he is destined to become? Even more important, will he survive the process?Check out the full range of books set in the world of Paradigm Lost at R. Roderick Rowe's Amazon Author Page here: https: //...
