Smoking Mirror Blues

AN ANCIENT GOD . . .

Tezcatlipoca, the Mirror that Smokes, warrior/wizard god of the Aztecs. Western Civilization thought it wiped him out centuries ago.

A NEW TECHNOLOGY . . .

With the help of silly-bio nanochips, Beto Orozco creates an artificial intelligence version of Tezcatlipoca. The result is a computerized resurrection.

THE FUTURE WILL NEVER BE THE SAME . . .

So Tezcatlipoca hijacks Beto's body and runs wild through futuristic Hollywood. The trickster adapts well to the brave, new world, and gets back to his old business of creating chaos and taking control.
