The Drum Wars is a guide to the ancient Maya world as it collides
with the 21st century. Past and present intersect at an offbeat
hotel near the famed jungle ruins of Palenque, in Chiapas, Mexico.

Indians, and the dysfunctional hotel ownerss clash with spiritual
seekers awaiting the apocalypse. While tribal drumming reaches out
to the galaxies, feuds between the family patriarch and his heirs
escalate into all-out battles gripping the entire community. Vying
for space and time are a wild assortment of true believers: New Age
gurus, fire dancers, Russian psychics, and Black Muslims. Add a few
love stories and a few Maya ghosts to this dark comedy and the
canvas is complete. The Drum Wars is a real-life adventure full of
mysterious, unpredictable eventse that leave the characters
breathless but unbowed on their elusive quest for paradise.
