The last survivors of a lost people find one another.
A spark of fantasy, forbidden love, strange creatures of the natural world, and tropical diseases coalesce to create the enchantment of this compelling story.
Blue Dragonfly takes you to a tropical world where Pedí and Adací are born with unusual gifts inherited from their massacred ancestors.
Pedí, a boy discounted and shunned due to his peculiarities and heritage, understands the healing plants of the forest and has a rare relationship with the animal world. Pedí can communicate with animals but stammers when he tries to talk with people.
Adací is an adopted girl whose lineage is kept secret. Her dreams and visions of the past, present, and future, create havoc within her family and society. Despite her best efforts, these dreams often come true. She is afraid she’s going to kill the boy she loves.
Will they survive their world?
Will they survive each other?
The Author
