An enthralling story of a poor and gawky kid who mysteriously becomes the world's greatest goalkeeper — a seamless blend of magic realism and exhilarating soccer action. "And you found it, this thing you were looking for?" It was darker now, and the city below Faustino's office was a jazzy dance of neon signs and traffic. The big man went to the window and looked down at it all, spreading his large hands on the glass. "No," he said. "It found me." When Paul Faustino of LA NACION flips on his tape recorder for an exclusive interview with El Gato — the phenomenal goalkeeper who single-handedly brought his team the World Cup — the seasoned reporter quickly learns that this will be no ordinary story. Instead, the legendary El Gato ("The Cat") quietly narrates a spellbinding tale that begins in a mythic corner of the South American rain forest, where a ghostly but very real mentor, the Keeper, emerges to teach the gangly boy the most thrilling secrets of the game. Combining vivid imagery and heart-stopping action, this evocative, strikingly ethereal novel about loyalty, passion, and magic will haunt readers, regardless of their love for soccer, long after the story is ended.

In the late twenty-first century, J.R., AKA Cat or El Gato, is a contented college history professor busy falling in love with a beautiful concert musician. But his increasingly powerful psychic skills are warning him of the cataclysmic destruction of Earth by global warming and World War III, and he must now find some means of survival for the human race. In this prequel, the fourth book of the Devistor series, we follow events before and during the Great Disaster, and begin to understand the history of the mystical Cat, who, supported by three brilliant women, will oversee the Earth’s survivors through thousands of years to a new Dark Age, a Renaissance, an Industrial Age, and finally, a true Space Age, while preparing the new world for a cataclysmic menace—a return of the aliens who nearly ended human life. In keeping with the fascinating mythologies and intricate world-building of the previous books in the Devistor series, the genres of action-thriller, hypnotic fantasy, and post-apocalyptic science fiction are seamlessly woven together...and now include the vibrant threads of three emotionally resonant romances.
