Manywords.net Book 1 Editorial Review
Fans of Indiana Jones, Stargate, and Edgar Rice Burroughs will enjoy Ancient Civilizations the most. However, the fast-paced action, unexpected twists, and great cast of characters should appeal to everyone. With this first book in the Lamentations and Magic series, the author has also set the scene for what promises to be a riveting saga. Read the full review here.
When you have the secret to ruling the world, everyone wants what you have.
The Aaruans may have magic, but they have seen nothing like the Earthlings’ guns. Hunted by the Remulan Empire for their knowledge, Ben, Louisa, Abu and the soldiers of the 13th Bengal Lancers must find a way home or become pawns in the struggle for ultimate power.
All they need to do is survive being guests of a race of immortal pseudo-humans known as the welves, outwit a Remulan Emperor who descends from Julius Caesar, and decipher the cryptic language of a long vanished alien race all before the threat of the world-ending Lamentations becomes a reality.
Step back into a world of adventure, romance, magic, and history with Echoes of Ancients as the story of our intergalactic castaways continues.
History is but a shadow of the truth.
Archaeologist Dr. Benjamin McGehee is facing new beginnings. Consumed with preparing for his first Egyptian excavation and raising a recently orphaned teenager, Ben never expected the enigma that is Louisa Sophia.
Being a foreigner’s bastard, Louisa learned early to take from the world before it took from her. Like a whisper in the sands of time, a stolen letter hints at the unimaginable:
In the wake of Alexander the Great’s death, his empire fractured. Armies of pretenders to his legacy maneuvered within the parched plains and canyons of the Egyptian Sinai, fighting over his remains. Elements of those armies vanish, leaving a mysterious footnote to history—a footnote that sends Louisa to Egypt seeking answers and treasure.
They discover the impossible. They take what they shouldn’t and, in the process, trigger a mystical artifact that transports them to the planet Aaru, the fabled Field of Reeds from Egyptian mythology.
Caught in the middle of a war and hunted for their unique knowledge, the desperate Earthlings confront a world where magic is common and alien races coexist alongside dwarves, elves, and humans from many of Earth’s ancient civilizations.
They must race to unlock the secrets of a long vanished alien race or face the Lamentations. Can they survive long enough to find a way home?
"If there's a book that you want to read, but it hasn't been written yet, then you must write it."
Toni Morrison
