Fifty years ago, the world was almost destroyed by a chemical war. Now the world is divided: the mutants & the pure, the broken & the privileged, the damaged & the perfect. Thirteen years ago, a covert government experimental facility was shut down & its residents killed. The secrets it held died with them. But five extraordinary kids survived. Today four teenagers are about to discover that their mutant blood brings with it special powers. Rush & three brothers & sisters he can`t remember. Two rival factions are chasing them. One by one, they face the enemy. Together, they might just stay alive.. . ...

” Mutant Message Down Under” is the gripping fictional account of the spiritual odyssey of an American woman in Australia. Summoned by a remote tribe of nomadic Aboriginals to accompany them on a walkabout through the outback, she makes a four month long journey with the ` Real People`, as the tribe calls itself. During this time she learns how they live & thrive in natural harmony with the plants & animals that exist in the rugged geography of the desert region. She faces daily tests of her endurance, & these challenges ultimately contribute to a profound personal transformation. ” Mutant Message Down Under”, an underground bestseller in its self-published edition, recounts a unique, timely & powerful message for all humankind: that it is not too late to save our world from destruction, if we learn to respect all living beings & to live in harmony with the earth. ” The story of a courageous woman who walked with the Aboriginals & learned the wonderful secrets & wisdom of an old, old tribe. Things we all need to learn in our modern society: to get back in touch with nature, to trust & have faith in our inner knowledge & guidance.”- Elisabeth Ka Bler-Ross ”A powerful message for all of us. I was hypnotised by the simple truths & spiritual lessons. Read it & tell everyone you know to do the same.”
- Wayne Dyer.

Boundaries of national parks & other protected areas are marked. In addition to all the usual information featured on topographic mapping at this scale, detailed presentation of the road & rail networks, rural tracks & paths, etc, the maps also show campsites & mountain refuges. On more recent editions some GRs, the official long-distance hiking routes, are also marked (although not as clearly as on hiking maps from other publishers). Each map covers 29.5x 18.5 km (with adjustments in the border or coastal areas). The maps have a 1-km UTM grid, plus margin ticks for latitude & longitude at 1` intervals. Map legend is in Spanish only.HOW TO CHOOSE THE RIGHT 50K MAP: all the titles in CNIG’s 200K Provincial Road Maps series at 1:200, 000 are overprinted with the grid for the 1:50, 000 maps & can be used to see the area covered by each 50K title.

- MAP TITLES: the grids shown on our website serve both the civilian & the military 1:50, 000 topographic series. Although the areas covered by maps in both series are identical (apart from some border or coastal sheets), occasionally map titles differ – only one title is shown on the grid, usually the military one. In Galicia, the Basque country & in the Catalan speaking areas the tendency now is to use local place names rather than the often better known Castilian ones. Where possible, both versions are included in our titles. Map titles listed on our website are based on information received by us at the time of publication, but sometimes maps arrive showing a completely different title! As long as the map number is as ordered, the correct map has been supplied.
