- About My Library
- I'm finally writing again after being away for several years. My first book after being away is Fossil Hunter, a fast-paced Indiana-Jones-style scientific thriller that explores the clash between science and faith. My second book is Shade, the infamous "vampireless vampire book" you've been hearing rumors about.
