Destined to protect the jungle, one girl must embrace her power.

Iya leads a simple life in her remote rainforest village until the day her shaman grandfather unexpectedly chooses her as his apprentice. As developers encroach upon their ancestral land, Iya must look within to find the gifts needed to guard her people and their way of life.

Meanwhile, two brothers from the modern world, Luk and Zak, journey to the village on parallel quests. Luk seeks a cure from the shaman, while Zak aims to help save endangered wildlife with his magical animal friends.

When Iya’s spirit animal guides her to cross paths with the brothers, she knows it is no coincidence. An ancient prophecy about the unity of cultures seems to be coming true. To fulfill her destiny, Iya must defeat her own darkness, unlock the power of forgiveness, and rally a tribe of unlikely heroes.

Infused with mysticism, adventure, and vivid nature writing, Rainforest Shaman will appeal to fans of contemporary eco-fantasy novels like The Girl Who Drank the Moon and Wolf Cry. As Iya connects with her spiritual roots to protect the natural world, she shows that listening to your soul’s calling leads to belonging and purpose.
