"Aztec Force, Yaomachtia Man" is William Bailey's first novel in this new YA Fantasy Series called the YAOMAN  series.  It will feature the following franchise characters: Quetzalcoatl "Quetz" Juarez;  Juanita "Janie" Mendoza; and  the Teen Force (Quetz; two teen girls from Mexico City and two teen girls from China).  The Japanese/Chinese/Aztec/Mayan cultural and martial arts comparisons in the YAOMAN series are both fresh and compelling.  

 

A Book 2 treatment is in development and will be titled "Juanita Mendoza's Big Adventure.".  Books 3-5 have one page summaries written... and will feature Quetz, Juanita Mendoza and the Teen Force.

 

William Bailey produced a series of tapes on Yaomachtia in 1996,  which included a documentary titled "Yaomachtia: The Jaguar Fights of Zitlala" which premiered at THE LATINO MUSEUM OF HISTORY, ART AND CULTURE in Los Angeles, CA on May 27, 1997.    The documentary was updated and re-released as a DVD in 2012.  An Instruction Manual was created for the DVD and was co-written by Michael “Macario” Brewer--- titled Yaomachtia 2012: An Anthropological Study into Aztec Warfare and Culture.  

 

Of note, the Sci-Fi Thriller script, LA CASA DE LUZ, originally written in 1992, was just re-written to make it more dystopian and after a future pandemic.   Depth was also added to the main characters, capturing more of the country's feelings of uncertainty and doom after COVID-19 started.
