The perfect gift...

What reviewers are saying...

As you probably have figured out by now, I love archaeology and historical places.  I have been on several trips with my nephew, Matt, where we have discovered many fun things that show up in my two books, The Hidden Chamber In The Great Sphinx and The Underwater Pyramid In the Bermuda Triangle.

I thought you might like to see what other people are saying about my books.

The Hidden Chamber In The Great Sphinx 
"This was a fun take on the mysteries of the Egyptian pyramids. While it is fiction, you can tell that the author did her research in the writing of the book. Seeing that this book was geared toward kids I shared this story with my eldest and she loved it. She wanted me to keep reading from beginning to end without pause." ~Dad

"This book is fascinating for any age, although it is written for young teens. I learned more facts from this than from a tour in Cairo, although the book is fiction." ~Bonnie

" I have always wanted to go Egypt to experience this wonder but it was enjoyable reading this author's spin about the Sphinx. It is also refreshing to see that people do research about what they write about because it helps make the story more believable  In Greek tradition, the Sphinx has the haunches of a lion, the wings of a great bird, and the face of a woman." ~Carrie

"The book in an overview is about a man who moves and finds love with a widowed mother next door neighbor. He is a professor and joins in archaeological digs following in the footsteps of his dad with life long friend archaeologist. Searching out the hidden chamber in the Great Sphinx life takes so many interesting turns. Facts are sprinkled throughout and fiction." ~Life

The Underwater Pyramid In the Bermuda Triangle
"Cadose is a seasoned traveler that takes you on the adventure of a lifetime! In The Underwater Pyramid in the Bermuda Triangle, Cliff Post and a few other characters from her book, The Hidden Chamber in the Great Sphinx, return for a new adventure! I learned about so many new things while reading this book. I learned historical facts about pirates, the geography of Bimini, SCUBA diving (I'm already a certified diver and she was spot on with everything!) and I learned about ancient civilizations, new discoveries and theories. Written primarily for younger children in their middle school years (and older) this book will fascinate the minds of many and take them on an incredible journey." ~Book

"The story picked up with the main character of Dr. Cliff Post, the archaeologist, who along with his adopted son, Matt and marine archaeologist, Kyle Wilson, has just discovered an under water pyramid in the Bermuda triangle just off the coast of Cuba.

The discovery leads to many more finds including mummies in water tight coffins, walls with cryptic hieroglyphs and a treasure trove of other goodies.

The exploration of the pyramid also lead to a special item that proves Dr. Post's theory of aliens and the lost city of Atlantis. Of course that item gets stolen and cause a couple of twists in the story including someone getting shot! Whoa!" ~NM

A Review About My Book From An Away We Go Reading Club Ambassador

I want to share with you today what one of the Summer Reading Club Ambassadors from Away We Go Media had to say about my book, "The Hidden Chamber In The Great Sphinx".

"This is a good book about Egypt. It has interesting plot twists. It also has nice character development. This story is about Dr. Cliff Post who is an American Egyptologist. He has a friend in Egypt who found a chamber in the right paw of the great sphinx. That friend invited him on a dig in Egypt, but first they must obtain a digging permit. The only problem is that there is another archeologist trying to get the permit. This other archeologist hates American archeologists digging in Egypt. He will stop at nothing to get Cliff out of the way."

My Book, The Underwater Pyramid in the Bermuda Triangle

The Underwater Pyramid in the Bermuda Triangle

In my second book, The Underwater Pyramid in the Bermuda Triangle, the protagonist finds an antimatter engine in the underwater pyramid.This antimatter engine was left in the underwater pyramid thousands of years ago by ancient aliens.

An antimatter engine is necessary if man hopes to achieve intergalactic flight.
It would have to be housed in a cigar shaped ship with the crew on one end and the engine on the other end. This would be necessary to shield the human occupants from lethal gamma rays.
The antimatter engine would be necessary to achieve the great speeds necessary to travel vast distances which are required in intergalactic flight.

My book, The Hidden Chamber In The Great Sphinx

The Hidden Chamber in the Great Sphinx

In my first book, The Hidden Chamber in the Great Sphinx, I got my idea for a supercomputer composed of 13 crystal skulls from two sources. 

One source was the fact that quartz is used in the microprocessors in modern day computers. I reasoned that if a microprocessor can store thousands of songs and thousands of books then how much more knowledge could be stored in a piece of quartz the size of a man's skull.

My second source was the fact that a real ancient supercomputer does exist; it is called the Antikythera Mechanism. This device was discovered by sponge divers off the coast of Antikythera Island which is a Greek island. So, I created a fictional supercomputer based upon a real ancient computer and real microprocessor components.

When I write my fiction, I like to base on facts. This takes my fiction into the realm of the possible.

About Divorce and Children

Children and Divorce

In my second book The Underwater Pyramid in the Bermuda Triangle, I addressed the subject of divorce. 

Many people think that divorce is an adult topic. However, I discussed it in my middle grade novel for two reasons:

 1. Studies have shown that children fear divorce more than the death of a parent. 

2. divorce affects 40% of all American children.

During a divorce, it is important to stress that the parent, especially the non-custodial parent is divorcing the spouse not the children. It is important for the children to be reassured that they are still loved by both parents.I believed that divorce should be discussed in my middle grade novel because it is so stressful for the children and because divorce is so widespread.
