INCAN CHIMERA:UFOs and pyramids in brazilian jungle...

A Brazilian helicopter pilot and a French researcher find evidence of Incan pyramids in the Brazilian Amazon, in the proximity of the Juruá River, and embark on an intriguing adventure in which blood and gold become one and the same.

 INCAN CHIMERA is a raw portrait of greed and does a great job describing regional flavors and landscapes, making readers feel they are there, crouching next to the hero behind the bushes of this mystic region, ready to jump into action.

This is a very exciting, fast-paced, breath-taking thriller, bathed in mud, blood, and gold. You can't help but wonder how much the author has actually witnessed of this unknown world in the Brazilian jungle, since Mr. Marangoni is indeed a pilot like the main character and has worked in the secretive Amazon forest

Pedro Marangoni is a Brazilian author from Italian and Portuguese descent. He has lived most of his adult life in Africa and the Amazon region, either in the military or working as a helicopter and airplane pilot.

His first book, entitled Angola, Comandos Especiais Contra Cubanos (“Angola, Special Commands Against Cubans,”) was published in Portugal in 1979 and became a bestseller, with two editions sold out within a month. His war memoir A Opção pela Espada (“Opting for the Sword,”) is currently in its second edition.

He has also published social critique poetry with Maria da Silva e a Era do Não (“Maria da Silva and the Era of No,”) and some philosophical material with O Infinito Não Tem Pressa (“The Infinite is in No Hurry.”)

Later in life, in his sixties, he went back to his hometown inland in the State of São Paulo, where he lives by himself in an old historic house from the early 1900s. As narrated in the Prologue to Incan Chimera, there is where he keeps all the pictures and flags on the walls to remember his past adventures, most of them dangerous ones... (by Rafa Lombardino)
