New York: Tor, 2003. Paperback,. John Jude Pelancar. New York: Tor:, 2003. Paperback, 406 pp. Cover artwork by: John Jude Pelancar In 1835 most of New York burns to the ground. A young man named Archie Prescott loses his wife and his daughter, or at least stumbles across a corpse that appears to be his daughter. Archie makes the acquaintance of a former sideshow worker who introduces him to a chacmool, a resurrected Mesoamerican avatar. This avatar plans to use the blood of our hero's daughter to bring about the end of humanity. Meanwhile, Stephen Bishop, a guide in The Mammoth Caves of Kentucky meets the avatar as well. The guide is looking for a world where the color of his skin won't make a difference. The avatar promises such a world, if the guide will do his bidding. Archie's path will cross with Stephen's with interesting results.
