Dreams of the N'dorobo is a gripping adventure novel about a murderous excursion through the violent recesses of East Africa, from the dark forests of Mt. Kenya to the forgotten corners of the mind, with Mau Mau assassins who seem to teleport themselves past all defenses. On the slopes of Mt. Kenya lies a secret--an old magic that has been whispered about around cooking fires for generations. This magic offers a challenge to the very concept of reality and a breakthrough in the art of assassination. Gabe Turpin, a middle-aged but still-rugged anthropologist and adventurer who explores the mystical and sometimes dark side of tribal cultures throughout the world, races to solve the mystery -- before it kills him. In the shaman Terrari, a Mau Mau Oath Giver who is a leader in the struggle against Western colonialism and a hater of all things white -- and the brother of Gabe's mentor, Sendeo -- Gabe nearly meets his match. Even the CIA can't help him.

Poetry. "Gary Chang has written a first book of complex beauty, made from the mortal darkness in the muzzle of a gun and the glorious gold in the eye of a feral goat's death and resurrection, ferocity, despair, loyalty, and love. In these poems are the big dogs and four-wheel drives that are the apt metaphors for our racial wounds and our most tender affections. This is the real stuff" -- Frank Stewart, By All Means.
