THE LIGHT IN THE SKY

How would you like to marry an Aztec Princess over 400 years old? You wouldn't like it? Well, maybe you would if you could see Tinemah, the daugher of Montezuma, whose beauty and youth were kept refreshed through a wonderful discovery of an Aztec priest.

"The Light in the Sky" deals with the unreal and fantastic throughout but in such a way as to make the reader forgive the wildest orgies of the imagination. Every detail is well planned and the authors relate interesting incidents, real and imaginary, of the struggle for Spanish dominion in Mexico.

The story is based on a make-believe discovery concerning light and the wonders that were worked with it. With the discovery a weapon far more powerful than any now known to man is developed and with which the world could be destroyed in a few seconds. Then again, the same energy could be used to better living conditions of mankind.

One inhabitant of Atzlan would use this power to avenge the Aztecs of the cruelties inflicted by Cortez and his warriors during the Mexican conquest, while the other would benefit the world through the discovery.

For certain reasons an allied soldier is abducted from the battlefields of France for three years of adventure in the great cavern country of Atzlan. He is kidnaped by a beautiful girl, who waits a chance to poison him. The Aztecs hold him for many years and, when the time is ripe, tell him of his destiny. He is to be separated from his body and sent off to another planet to discover the nature of life thereon. In the meantime, he falls in love with the Princess Tinemah, the "Daughter of the Sun". In the struggle for the dominion of the light rays Atzlan is destroyed and only four persons escape alive. ONe of them is the beautiful Tinemah. You will love her when you read more about her.
