Sinopse

With The Pygmy Forest , Isabel Allende concludes the trilogy The Adventures of the Eagle and the Jaguar. And this time, Alexander and Nadia will accompany Kate to the heart of Africa.

After facing enormous beasts in the Amazon and visiting a kingdom in the high peaks of the Himalayas, the group led by journalist Kate Cold now finds itself in one of the wildest regions of Africa.

Kate Cold, Alexander, and Nádia travel to Equatorial Africa planning to enjoy a safari. They find Kenya a festival of colors and beauty; they are overcome by a mixture of flavors, smells, and sounds. However, this paradise also hides its shadows.

The appearance of a Spanish priest will completely change their plans, dragging the entire group into a mysterious forest inhabited by pygmies. And this time, Kate's expedition will be tasked with uncovering the whereabouts of two missing missionaries in a remote and impenetrable village ruled by King Kosongo, Commander Mbembelé, and the sorcerer Sombê, who enslaves the pygmies and his own people to enrich himself through contraband.

Along the way, they will face countless extremely dangerous situations. Demanding the utmost of their intelligence, their main weapon, Kate and her companions overcome yet another thrilling series of challenges.

The Pygmy Forest , the closing narrative of the trilogy "The Adventures of the Eagle and the Jaguar"—preceded by "The City of Beasts" and "The Kingdom of the Golden Dragon "—is a fascinating succession of adventures in a region forgotten by mankind, an Africa where evil and injustice must be combated and natural riches preserved. Isabel Allende, one of the most representative voices in contemporary literature, introduces us to characters who know how to listen with their hearts, who understand that respect and solidarity are the only way forward, and who believe in a better world.
