FINALIST (In 2 Categories): American Book Fest - Best Book Awards 2019

"...a compelling science fiction tale with post-apocalyptic undertones. There is a powerful sense of mystery—secrets hidden in ancient manuscripts and other worlds to explore. The Augur's View is exciting, featuring an imaginary setting that goes far beyond the world we know." ~ Readers' Favorite Book Reviews (5 STARS)

Eena, an Anunnaki/human hybrid, and her friend Gavin are among those abandoned on the surface after a coronal mass ejection. Even after surviving aircraft falling from the skies, raging winds, and unrelenting electrical storms, revulsion grips Eena when the new rulers offer her a rise in "status" by working in a lab to clone infants—the secret future workforce.

When Eena discovers at last the portal to ancient Mu, and finds the giant augurs that fly there, she enlists their help. It may be the last, best chance to achieve human sovereignty.

"...a fast-paced story that embraces all kinds of social, political, moral, and ethical questions while remaining firmly rooted in the dreams, ambitions, and struggles of young people who reach for a better world. It's a powerful opener to a hero's journey in which the world beckons with new opportunity and danger, the promise of futuristic science and technology, and the dreams of survivors who both struggle and love on different levels." ~ Midwest Book Review, D. Donovan, Sr. Reviewer

About the Author

In seventh grade, Mrs. Trader inspired me both as a writer and a teacher. In her class, I learned I loved to write and that my classmates liked to hear my stories. Her spirited students engaged in dramatic performances, hands-on projects, and lively discussions—nothing like the poor subdued souls across the hall, managed by the teacher with long green eyes. So Mrs. Trader was my model when I started a school and set aside my writing—that is, until it dawned on me that tribes of children have loved learning by listening to stories for thousands of years. So I wrote about a million words that speak to head and heart, which I am still reading to my child listeners. But now I’m writing stories, my second million words, to speak to the heads and hearts of adult readers and listeners, and hoping my classmates will like them.
