”A young boy goes on a journey through the solar system searching for the spirit of his sister, discovers the basics of science and spirituality with the help of a mystic teacher and a super-powered cat….[with an] element of the classic YA SF novel, A Wrinkle in Time by Madeleine L’Engle….Fasten your seatbelt!” - Chanticleer Book Reviews
Love and Death have a story to tell.
In the Missouri-Kansas border of 1962, Teddy's older sister died on a family outing. Eleven-year-old Teddy DeXue misses his late sister with all his heart.
Teddy’s dreams begin to show him otherworldly Moonlight, which lights a shadowed path to reunite him with his sister. Wanting desperately to believe, Teddy begins to find allies to guide him. He has a vision of a legendary ancient Chinese man, Fu Hsi, who encourages him to believe there is more to death than death itself.
Suddenly, things align when Teddy's best friend, Tem, shows him ancient Egyptian crystals that flash strange lights of blues, greens, and reds. The boys believe the crystals may hold powers to the mysteries of life.
Fu Hsi teaches the boys, through dreams, the way of the ancients; how life transforms under the powers of the crystals.
With a lunar-powered car, a supernatural cat, and his childhood pal in tow, Teddy is confronted with the science and spirituality of light. They have to decide if they should test Fu Hsi's wisdom. But whatever they decide, that Moonlight beckons Teddy to find Jean. If he can make his way through the cosmos and unlock the crystals’ remarkable energies, he might just hold his sister one last time.
Will Teddy finally find the answers he seeks, or will he return to Earth heartbroken?
Fans of Bless Me, Ultima by Rudolfo Anaya, We Are the Ants by Shaun David Hutchinson, and When the Moon Was Ours by Anna-Marie McLemore will enjoy Teddy’s dazzling metaphysical journey to find his beloved sister before she’s lost to him forever.
