Publisher's Synopsis
WHEN the divinely protected land of Alii'uta loses its national treasure, three Alii'utans, endowed with special powers, set out on the quest to find their treasure and save their land.

Will the seekers find their treasure and make it back home in time to outstrip its destruction? Can they save the last struggling remnants of mankind before the world around them is blotted out?
"A masterful, visionary, captivating work....So engaging that the readers will not want to put it down for even a fraction of the second." -The Silver Elves, authors of books on magic and enchantment "A very exciting, dramatic, unique, and fascinating novel reminiscent of Bellamy's, Huxley's, and Wells's favorite subjects. Told in Rizaj's immersive prose, the novel paints a stark picture of near-future societies which either bring the human essence to full realization or distort and pervert it beyond all recognition.... A tremendous piece of work - realistic and allegorical, dark and lucent, numinous and prophetic, brutal and compassionate." -A.R. Karjagdiu, professor of English and American literature and author of over 200 publications, including An Overview of English Literature and With Konica in Europe "As intriguing and imaginative as fiction and as informing and sobering as history...both an epic tale of harrowing adventure and a frighteningly intricate envisioned future world.... Its message, no doubt, will ripple out through the decades to come." -Carl Max Kortepeter, columnist, history educator, and author of Ottoman Imperialism During the Reformation: Europe and The Caucasus "Who Stole the Rainbow Colors is a compelling story with unusual characters set out to restore a lost human community, to rekindle life in the face of darkness and death, to reunite humankind with the rest of creation.... The places the seekers visit are the finest examples of a Doom world ever put to action; of the lost souls condemned to damnation. The many varied phenomena they encounter are deeply unsettling, bypassing any easy moral judgements...definitively a great novel, far ahead of its time, which has become a favorite of mine." -Hamdi Daci, professor of English and American literature at the University of Prishtina
