Publisher's summary

In the heart of Guatemala in the legendary city of Tikal, tourists Derick and Matt stumble upon an ancient portal that thrusts them and their tour guide Kaya back to 900 AD – the height of power for the Maya civilization.

The trio is soon confronted by the ruthless Maya leader Yax Ehb Xook and his loyal warriors, who threaten the group’s ability to survive and escape back to the present day.

Using their wits and knowledge of Maya culture and history, the trio must return to the portal before they become forever entwined in the tapestry of time.

The Maya Portal is a gripping tale of time travel, history, and the pursuit of a way back home.

Critic reviews

“John Tomasko does what every great novelist does – he tells a good story and he tells it well. His imaginative tale grabs the reader and holds on ‘til the climactic last scene, taking us on a journey to the heights of the Maya culture. In the telling of his story, John gives us characters whom we come to care about, and we follow them through a wild adventure of time travel and human sacrifice. He brings to life the incredible nights in ancient Tikal when the jungle was lit with huge bonfires, and the blood of innocents flowed down the pyramid steps to satisfy the many gods of the Maya. The story swirls around and around, and the reader, like me, may have trouble putting the book down until the story is complete. Enjoy!” Daniel N. Spatucci, author, Ether Flows

“The Maya Portal is a gut-churning time-warping novel that plunges you into the heart of Mesoamerica at the height of an ancient and mighty civilization. Author John Tomasko constructs a convincing, suspenseful, and satisfying saga that will keep you turning pages far into the ominous night.” Deke Castlemaneditor, Huntington Press

“Ancient Maya civilization and the modern world smash into each other in this wildly original story.” Charles Nolanauthor, The Holy Bluff / songwriter
