Forbidden Archaeology Sci-Fi Thrillers

Some history was buried on purpose.

Somebody finds something in the dirt that's way too old to be there. A lost city. Ancient tech. Proof the history books got it wrong. And now somebody wants it back. That's what I write, in real places all over the world and out in the stars. Over forty books and counting.

International bestselling author. Co-writer with NY Times bestseller Douglas E. Richards.

Dig into the world

Most author sites give you a book list and a signup box. I built you a map, some locked stone tablets, and a quiz that tells you which of my books to read first. Go poke around. The books aren't going anywhere.

The Expedition Map

Every one of my books is pinned to the real place where it happens, on a map of Earth, a star chart, and maps of other worlds. Click a series and a line traces the route the characters travel. Check off the books you've read and the map fills in as you go.

Decode the Tablet

Three short stories you can't get anywhere else, each one locked behind a carved stone tablet. Figure out the hidden word and the story unlocks for free. Share the page on social media and I'll throw in a whole novella.
