Fantasy
If you could live forever, what would you die
for? Five hundred years ago, a group of
Spanish conquistadors searching for gold, led by a young and
brilliant commander named Simon De Oliveras, land in the New
World. What they find in the sunny and humid swamps of this
uncharted land is a treasure far more valuable: the Fountain
of Youth. The Spaniards slaughter the Uzita, the Native
American tribe who guard the precious waters that will keep
the conquistadors young for centuries. But one escapes:
Shako, the chief’s fierce and beautiful daughter, who swears
to avenge her people—a blood oath that spans more than five
centuries. . . When the source of the fountain is
destroyed in our own time, the loss threatens Simon and his
men, and the powerful, shadowy empire of wealth and
influence they have built. For help, they turn to David
Robinton, a scientific prodigy who believes he is on the
verge of the greatest medical breakthrough of all time. But
as the centuries-old war between Shako and Simon reaches its
final stages, David makes a horrifying discovery about his
employers and the mysterious and exotic woman he loves. Now,
the scientist must decide: is he a pawn in a game of
immortals. . . or will he be its only winner?
