Publishers Description: The Meq are a rare, ancient and enigmatic race who originated in the Basque Pyrenees. While some of them may be hundreds - even thousands - of years old, they retain the physical appearance of twelve-year-olds. Over the course of time they have played witness and catalyst to some of the most glorious and shameful events in history. This is the story of Zianno Zezen - commonly known as "Z" - and it commences in 1881, on an ill-fated train journey through the Rocky Mountains. Rescued by a bearded stranger, befriended by orphans, beguiled by kin and burdened by revenge, Z begins a quest to understand the Meq, their purpose, and their secrets. The first novel of a trilogy introduces a race of people who behave entirely like humans, yet always, first and last, remain themselves - the Meq.
