An ancient Mayan codex, a lost city and a quest through the Valley of Death, the tunnel of the Serpents, the Pit of the crocodile, and the eight deserts with the raging whirlwind that cuts solid rock. Don’t forget to face the demon Ixputeque and the fiend Neztpehua in the realm of hot ashes and the two blazing mountains.
