Immerse yourself in the mythical landscapes of 1920s Mexico with 'Gods of Jade and Shadow,' a journey where the mortal realm collides with the enchanting forces of the supernatural. Follow Casiopea Tun, who inadvertently frees the Mayan god of death from his ensnarement. Bound to a divine quest, she must traverse the country, from the Yucatn jungles to the vibrant Mexico City, confronting the shadows of Xibalba—the Mayan underworld. As Casiopea wrestles with her destiny, she is engulfed in a vivid era of jazz and revolution, treading the delicate threads of freedom, identity, and ambiguous loves. Silvia Moreno-Garcia presents a tapestry rich in mythology and history, where a young woman's determination to seize control of her life glimmers with the promise of dreams fulfilled or the peril of dreams extinguished.
