About the Book

It is the mid 1800s and the wild is still undisturbed...

Kale lives on Kisazi village, somewhere in East and Central Africa. The son of a hunter, he has perfected his skills in using the bow and arrows. Kale loves the forest and usually joins other young men on hunting expeditions.

When he is sixteen, something goes wrong during one of the hunting expeditions. A leopard attacks and almost kills Zala's only son, but Kale saves him using his bow and arrows. Zala is an advisor to the king, a powerful and wealthy man, known far and wide due to his great wisdom.

The leopard attack changes the life of Zala's only son for the worst. His son becomes very sick even after his wounds get healed. He sweats and trembles for no good reason. At times his heartbeat is rapid and has difficulty in breathing. He sometimes complains of tightness in the chest and a sensation of butterflies in his stomach. Occasionally, he experiences panic attacks and feelings of anxiety.

Although many think otherwise, Zala knows that there is only one cure for his son's problems: take him to the wild and spend time there with him. Zala requests Kale to accompany him on the dangerous journey to the Plains of Puro. It is located deep in the African grasslands and is home to all sorts of wildlife.

Kale always thinks positively. He is excited, but apprehensive. Zala, his only son and Kale set off for the African grasslands, armed with only knives, a bow and arrows. It is just the three of them. Even the king is against the trip. Zala doesn't want to take the trip either, but he knows that it is the only medicine that can cure his beloved son.

It is a journey lasting more than three weeks. They face danger and the unexpected at every turn. They deal with hungry lions, stealthy leopards, ingenious crocodiles, uncompromising buffalos, poisonous snakes and dangerous insects and more. For Zala it is a trek of hope, but for others a trek of death.

Although not mentioned directly, the story demonstrates how the famous law of attraction manifests itself in real life. Zala's attitude and the way he reacts to unexpected actions, events and situations teaches object lessons demonstrating the belief that 'a person brings positive or negative experiences into their life by focusing on positive or negative thoughts.'

Zala uses the unforeseen events that befall them and his vast knowledge of animal behavior to demonstrate how to overcome fear, fight depression, win battles and earn passive income. It is an unusual trip in a unique setting where danger, wisdom and skill collude in unleashing fear, hope, excitement and uncertainty.

Why do they go only the three of them when the king is willing to give Zala an army of young men? Is it wise to take his only son on such a dangerous trip? Will the three of the come back alive? The debate rages on and on among the residents of Kisazi village ... For many who go there never come back.
