Los círculos de los Dioses (Los círculos de los Dioses #Volumen 1)
by Guadalupe Rivera MarínLos círculos de los dioses es la primera novela de una trilogía que gira en torno a la presencia de seres extraterrestres en México desde tiempos inmemoriales. ¿Qué son las Bolas Rojas que cruzan el cielo de la Sierra Gorda, en Querétaro, desde tiempos inmemoriales e incluso hasta nuestros días? La autora de Los Círculos de los Dioses vio una de estas Tzinzimimes, como también las llaman, en 1974, cuando viajaba por la región. Motivada por dicha experiencia decidió conocer a fondo este antiguo misterio que ha sobrevivido a través de los siglos y encontrar su explicación. Justamente esta primera novela (que forma parte de una trilogía) es el resultado de sus investigaciones realizadas a lo largo de varios años y que han culminado en lo que ella llama "historia-ficción", una amalgama de datos históricos y arqueológicos, mitología prehispánica y leyendas populares, personajes reales e imaginarios y hechos y situacionesposibles. Todo ello con el propósito de descifrar, a partir de un enigma concreto, nuestros más remotos orígenes. Esta narración comienza durante la segunda década del siglo XX, cuando se libra en la región la guerra cristera. Pedro Raygadas, el protagonista, es herido en una batalla y rescatado por los indios pames. La relación que establece con una joven princesa indígena desencadena una serie de vicisitudes y aventuras a través de las cuales va surgiendo el misterio: la existencia de vestigios, posiblemente extraterrestres, ocultos en cuevas y minas abandonadas. Una novela apasionante que atrapará, desde su primera página, a quienes quieren conocer los enigmas de nuestro pasado indígena.
