An Intelligently constructed and exciting peek into the distant past
Kirkus Reviews delivered its review of "Imhotep" yesterday. They liked it: "While the undergirding premise of the plot is wildly fantastical, the author has a peculiar talent for rendering the implausible in credible terms. In addition, the depiction of ancient Egypt is masterly executed, both authentic and accessible, with the narrative including Tim's descriptions of the landscape ("He saw in the distance the green of the Nile's valley, richer and darker and fuller than he remembered it. And along the river, rising from its banks he saw a city of mud brick homes surrounded by a thick white wall: The long-dead city that Tim knew as Memphis"). But the real draw of the book is its characters, especially Tim, drawn in lushly substantive terms."

Join my writing team
I'm trying to put together a creative writing team through a website called Patreon. My idea is to harness the collective creativity of a crowd as I write my next novel, tentatively titled "Suti and the Lost Labyrinth." Visit Patreon to sign up for the experiment. See you there!

Suti follows Imhotep
I recently released "Suti and the Broken Staff," which continues the story of Imhotep. This book is a bit of a change from the other novels set in ancient Egypt. I wanted to make the ancient world more immediate, so I wrote the story from the point of view of a 14-year-old scribe named Suti. The young scribe is sent on a simple errand: to travel from the battlefield of Megiddo to the nearby crossroads of Yehem to fetch Imhotep and Queen Menwi. However, they are missing, and Suti's simple task becomes a months-long trek the length of Egypt. Tortured and nearly killed in distant Ta-Seti, Suti discovers a secret that could destroy the ma'at of the Two Lands. I had a great time writing it. I hope you give it a look.

Imhotep has a voice!
"Imhotep" is now available as an audiobook! In December I paired up with ACX and with a talented narrator named Clay Lomakayu. An artist, actor and shaman from Arizona, Clay has a perfect story-telling voice for the novel. He and I worked together for nearly two months - often puzzling over how to pronounce the ancient Egyptain names - to get the 180,000+ word novel into audio form. I think Clay did a wonderful job bringing the story to life. ACX has given me some promo coupons. If you subscribe to AudioBooks, drop me a note and I'll shoot a coupon your way.

Last of Imhotep Series
"The Field of Reeds" went on sale this week. The fourth and final novel about the ancient architect Imhotep begins immediately after the end of "The Forest of Myrrh" with Imhotep returning from Ta Netjer, also known as the Land of Punt. As the ships are making their way up the Great Green, Pharaoh Thutmose III is with the army in Canaan learning to be a military commander. The second section follows the story of Imhotep's grandson, Neferhotep, who has become commander of the army's charioteers. The final section, which centers on the Battle of Megiddo, brings Imhotep's story to an end.

Third Book in imhotep Series
"The Forest of Myrrh" is available at Amazon. Kyle again created a wonderful cover that illustrates the story and hints at some of the subplots. Although I just published "The Forest of Myrrh" it seems to be generating the same interest as "The Buried Pyramid" did last year. Thank you to my readers. I'm beginning work on an audio book of "Imhotep" and starting to plot the last story in the "Imhotep" series. I'm also playing around with an idea for a multi-media book. Stay tuned ...
