[FWD: "Daughter of the Sun" by C. Wendell Oliver]



About the Novel:

The Anubis, an ancient "Dark Matter" entity part-man part-beast has invaded the realm of man. Walking freely amongst us in human form it seeks to subjugate mankind. One woman born of an extraordinary lineage has the power to stop it. Doctor Deidra Jones is a modern day descendant of the most famous "Werewolf Fighter" the world has ever known, "The Sun Goddess," and "Warrior Queen of Egypt" Nefertiti. Deidra has been chosen by the entities of "Light" to recapture the Anubis and send it back into its dark lair. The world of man needs a hero. Can Deidra become that hero? With the help of a small band of feline enhanced humans can she meet the challenge successfully as her fabled ancestor did and stop the Anubis? Or will she falter in her mission and leave the world of mankind at its mercy?

The Forthcoming: Daamon Speller - Out Cold

 
Daamon Speller
Out Cold
Available February 3, 2009
 
 
At age twenty-two, best friends Randall Crawford and Dirk Francis are on their own at last and living the good life in New York City in the 1980s. When it comes to the honeys, Randall just doesn't seem able to find his way out of the dreaded "friend zone," while Dirk is only interested in fast love and perfecting his funky fresh dance moves.
 
Life as they know it is about to change when Madison Jones enters the picture. She's a twenty-nine-year-old, def-to-the-bone honey-dip who always gets what she wants-and right now that's a husband, a house on Long Island, and 2.5 kids before her thirty-fifth birthday.
When these three diverse agendas collide, secrets and mayhem follow as they turn each other's lives inside out. Out Cold is an old-school story of good times, not-so-good times, and the consequences of both.
