Selvyn can handle his life on the streets... But when coerced by sinister strangers to search for a quetzal, which wondrously becomes a part of him, how will he cope with life on the run? And when he wakes up in the mysterious world of Aakbal, how about dealing with a reality that he no longer understands? In Aakbal, a rabbit, a jaguar, and a howler monkey chatting and playing tiles is an ordinary afternoon. Monsters the size of elephants with the dexterity of apes? Better to avoid them, but they are natural nonetheless. A girl who can change herself into a wolf? A Sanunak princess who can fire barbs of light from a magical bow? Just the kind of allies Selvyn will need to stay alive. But with death as the only way to free him of the transformational powers so many covet, Selvyn's greatest test will be a terrible and all but impossible choice.
