The Way Back to Eden

The Way Back to Eden

Book 2 of the Jaguar Oracle Series

A Mystical Journey to Restore the Natural Order as Hope Guides the Way

In the lush wilderness of the Rio Grande Valley, a prophecy is on the brink of fulfillment. The ruling cats have vanished—until a jaguar named Oracle sets his face to summon the scattered tribes and restore their calling.

A captivating quest and an unforgettable journey home.

His path intersects with extraordinary animal companions—a wise horse, a storytelling toad, and a clever raccoon—as they navigate the mystically supercharged landscapes of the Texas-Mexico borderlands and Brazos River bottomlands, an odyssey in ancient forests, sacred sanctuaries, and before a mysterious tower.

Guided by ancient wisdom and the enduring loyalty of his animal friends, Oracle’s epic journey leads him through a world on the brink of upheaval and filled with human drama. As developers encroach on the land and threaten the delicate balance of nature, Oracle must navigate a tangled web of human greed, betrayal, and violence as he discovers clues to the missing jaguarundi tribe and calls upon the warring animal factions to “remember their names”—what Adam spoke when he named them.

The fate of the Valley rests on Oracle overcoming captivity, recovering lost memories, and rediscovering the original harmony between man and beast. From vast high-tech ranches to ancient palm groves, from well-ordered zoos to untamed wilderness, the epic weaves together a rich tapestry of cultures, legends, and natural beauty.

Blending elements of magical realism, environmental advocacy, and pulse-pounding adventure, this sweeping tale transports readers into a vibrant world where all things have a voice.

A monstrous catfish, a demonized cougar, an evil spirit, and the ghost of a fisherman await the jaguar.  What will a bowhunting treehouse hermit do when he finds him?

Meanwhile,  Oracle’s animal companions and a retiring cartel boss struggle to protect an abandoned child the birds have named Miracle from a sleepless malice. They seek to return him to his parents—but can they?

A deeply satisfying and thought-provoking fantasy epic, The Way Back to Eden is the second of the seven-book Jaguar Oracle series. Discover the magic that awaits where ancient wildlife sanctuaries hold secrets, where tigers and hedgehogs  guide lost souls home, and where the path back to Eden might just be hidden in plain sight.
