The Quest for Home by Jacqui Murray

Posted on September 25, 2019

Hey, y’all, if you’re here to join my mid-week linky party, my Wild Wednesdays post went live earlier but while you’re here then let me say I have my good friend and blog buddy Jacqui Murray from worddreams… with us, virtually not physically, today. I’m excited to help her launch book two in the Crossroads Trilogy.

In response to I know this is part of a series. What’s that about? this is what Jacqui said… 

Good question, Cathy. Thanks for asking The Man vs. Nature saga (which The Quest for Home and Crossroads trilogy are part of) delves into man’s ability to survive the unsurvivable, make decisions that could kill him, and makes plans contrary to his instincts. Most (all?) animals operate on an internal compass call instinct. Man has free will—the ability to reject our gut in favor of our intellect or heart.

 

 

 

Chased by a ruthless and powerful enemy, Xhosa flees with her People, leaving behind her African homeland, leading her People on a grueling journey through unknown and perilous lands. As they struggle to overcome treachery, lies, danger, tragedy, hidden secrets, and Nature herself, Xhosa must face the reality that her most dangerous enemy isn’t the one she expected. It may be one she trusts with her life. 

The story is set 850,000 years ago, a time in prehistory when man populated Eurasia. He was a violent species, fully capable of addressing the many hardships that threatened his survival except for one: future man, the one destined to obliterate any who came before.

Based on a true story, this is the unforgettable saga of hardship and determination, conflict and passion as early man makes his way across Eurasia, fleeing those who would kill him. He must be bigger-than-life, prepared time and again to do the impossible because nothing less than the future of mankind is at stake.
