The Moon Chasers

Gordon Parks mysteriously disappears in 1980 while investigating ruins in the jungles of Guatemala.  Thirty-five years later, strangely similar ruins are discovered in Kendell, Illinois, where Porter Smith and Henry Dundridge are high school sophomores.

Porter meets a beautiful transfer student from England named Sarah whose mother, Elizabeth Weston, is a gifted archaeologist called in to investigate the Kendell ruins.  Typically, this might not be such a big deal, except Weston happens to be the most powerful witch on the planet.  She also knows that the ruins identify the locations of rare, dimensional portals to places she can only guess.

Mistakenly believing that Porter is planning to dump Sarah, Weston exacts her revenge by casting the boys, and Henry’s amazing robot Solaritron, through the Kendell portal, where they suddenly find themselves on an island in the West Indies in a nearly identical Earth universe stuck in the early sixteenth century. Only in this alternate universe, the first Spanish explorers have been expelled from the New World following a bloody war with the Taino: the island’s native inhabitants.

Soon after the boys’ unexpected arrival, the island’s chief declares that they are evil Spaniards as well, and so begins Porter’s and Henry’s adventure to figure out where they are and how to escape before suffering the terrible fate of those deemed mortal enemies of the Taino:  an adventure that will lead them to the long lost Gordon Parks and the secret of how to get back home.

Prepare yourself -- The Moon Chasers is an exciting, compelling and, at times, humorous romp from the near future into the distant past.
