In this novel—the second of The Path of Wiraqocha series—a fortyyear- old Hamawtha Wiraqocha leaves the Taypikhala Temple to reach Qosqo, an exceedingly fertile mountainous region, where Unu, the world’s holiest saywa (guiding beacon), lies hidden, surrounded by lush mountains. That sacred saywa is the world’s central source of cosmic energy from which all mystical paths stem. After many adventures, Wiraqocha, together with his friend Antarki and many Tampu warriors from Qosqo, set out to find the mysterious saywa near the secret City of Light of Machu Picchu. Siwar, a maiden Ñusta princess from a neighboring village, becomes Wiraqocha’s loving guide in their daring quest to find the Unu.
