Twelve Pelicans: Book One, Farming Skygods & Domestication

This tale begins on Aymara tribal lands in the Altiplano region of northern Chile and flows from the still untamed and time frozen Andes Highlands, down to a developing industrialized coastline, following the apocalyptic fallout of World War Two.

Book One of this Twelve Pelican trilogy is simply expressed through the refreshingly curious eyes of a young, mixed-cast human called Balam, as he comes to grips with life crippling diseases like superclass born bigotry and change phobic religious extremism.

To help better understand these social viruses, as they are weaponized and reinvented throughout history by narcissistic rulers and divinely self-appointed skygod kings, the boy is gifted a rare educational opportunity.

As his journey unfolds, along with a motley crew of historical characters, Balam hopes to learn more about forgiveness, open minded tolerance, non-dualistic acceptance, first love and shared ‘Big Everything’ values.

Answers to most of his questions are found in culturally intertwined patterns from the past, stimulating the boy’s research in the present. All delivered by a kindly local Librarian and a not so innocent feathered menagerie of mythical pelican messengers: Who, it should be pleasing to note, do not directly represent the collective values of the various writers quoted in this ancient, yet currently relevant tale.

As the listener, you are openly invited to join the cast of this historical fiction show to respectfully investigate humanity’s dynamic and remarkably interwoven social dance as it emerges from the last Ice Age over 12,000 years ago. Then explore how this age-old dance is currently being poisoned by a small handful of quick-fix, authoritarian extremists, peddling fear and division around our globe today.
