An ordinary Sedona school day turns cosmic when Schizandra faints. What prophets have whispered for millennia has finally come to pass. Schizandra Ginger Parker has crossed the veil, and she now holds the key to human evolution. But her visit to the underworld marks only half the journey. The galaxy itself depends on her awakening. Will Schizandra conquer her own mythic demons? Will strangers unite to save her so that she can save the world? Humanity has come this far before -- many times -- but fear has always stopped the transformation. Can Schizandra lead Earth back to Paradise? Readers will laugh, cry and shiver their way through Book One of the Schizandra series. "A delightful story that both captivates and enlightens." -- Shirley Andrews, author of Lemuria and Atlantis.
