Get ready to meet BLACK JAGUAR

I am in the middle of writing the third story in the CHRONICLES OF KASSOUK, and the characters are taking shape nicely.  I already consecrated a page of my website to this book, with an excerpt of the very first chapter.  You'll also enjoy the pictures I chose to represent my characters.  Love them.  Here is my very first attempt at a blurb:

When Kahuel of Yalta, known as Black Jaguar, sails away with Diablo, his faithful feline, to explore a new world, it is in large part to escape a dissolute past. He also hopes to establish himself as a worthy prince. But when tragedy strikes, and the new continent proves to be inhabited, he discovers that the powerful Mutant of Kassouk who commandeered the expedition has an ulterior motive.

Princess Talina of the Chosen Clan, a peaceful native group concealed and protected by a race of powerful aliens, believes she can never wed. But when foreigners land on her shores, led by a royal prince, and they bring with them the Lost Daughter of the sacred prophecy, she realizes her fate is about to change.

The Estrell people, a dying galactic race, have a crucial use for the innocent Chosen, and they cannot let a bunch of explorers jeopardize decades of intricate work to insure the survival of their race.

With the future of the entire planet at stake, the struggle for survival will play on this virgin continent, away from civilization. Can Kahuel save Talina and the Chosen from a terrible fate? Can he, with his warriors and felines, simple weapons and Human ingenuity, prevail against a highly advanced enemy, against impossible odds?
 
The book is coming from Desert Breeze in November 2010 and will be available in all eBook formats everywhere.
