The Debut Novel by Ryan D. Montoya
A young man is drawn inexorably to the mountains, to seek what is beyond, to know what's on the other side… to discover the fabled City of the Gods. His journey will challenge his understanding of purpose, of the divine, and of the limits, if any, of human experience and knowledge of what may not be seen with the eye, but clearly seen with the heart.
