An ancient Mayan prophecy... A dangerous Nazi descendant... A passionate archaeologist... And an aristocrat desperate for cash. Mayan legends tell of a location where the secret to surviving the end of the world may be found. One part of that legend is recorded on a stone tablet in the dusty attic of Lord 'Ratty' Ballashiels' crumbling manor. The other twin part disappeared from a Berlin museum when the Nazis took power. When Ratty seems about to sell his tablet to the adopted son of Josef Mengele, his friend, the archaeologist Ruby Towers, is appalled. Soon it is clear that more than archaeology is at stake. The quest to rescue historic Central American artefacts becomes a race to prevent an apocalyptic threat when Ruby discovers that the ancients have set in motion something that will threaten the world today.

She was far more than just a pretty face. . . . Although Nefertiti is the dutiful daughter of a commoner, her inquisitive mind often gets her into situations that are far from ordinary, like receiving secret lessons from a scribe. And her striking beauty garners attention that she'd just as soon avoid, especially when it's her aunt, the manipulative Queen Tiye, who has set her sights on Nefertiti. The queen wants to use her niece as a pawn in her quest for power, so Nefertiti must leave her beloved family and enter a life filled with courtly intrigue and danger. But her spirit and mind will not rest as she continues to challenge herself and the boundaries of ancient Egyptian society. With control of a kingdom at stake and threats at every turn, Nefertiti is forced to make choices and stand up for her beliefs in ways she never imagined. As she did in Nobody's Princess and Nobody's Prize, author Esther Friesner offers readers a fresh look at an iconic figure, blending historical fiction and mythology in a heady concoction.

Accounts of past lost civilizations, strange aerial phenomena, unexplained encounters, and cryptic codes unquestionably continue to tease our minds with their intrigue. While many of these puzzles, which often are passed down from one generation to another, sound so incredible that they appear to be stories of pure fiction, from time to time, and more often than we realize, they turn out to be true. UCHRONIA (alternative history) connects with several such controversial topics and provides facts and clues that could explain some of the most contentious mysteries of our time, including Plato’s Atlantis. Is the Human Genome a real miracle or genetics? What is the meaning behind the Nazca Lines? Has a Middle Eastern culture managed to visit North America 10,000 years before Christopher Columbus? Can the Old Testament of the Holy Bible be a copy of a much older original? In 2017, New York City-Big Book Awards voted the original edition of UCHRONIA as one of their Distinguished Favorites! This UPDATED & EXTENDED version is not just an extension or a more in-depth analysis of the original work published in 2014, but an opportunity to illustrate how several more scientific events and recent archaeological discoveries now further support many of the earlier conclusions noted in the original edition.
