Sample of Work
      Tonah, shaman and spiritual leader of the Huastecs, approached the lodge of Shanni, his granddaughter. “I believe that Power has given us a new and powerful ally in Caleb Stone.” he said. 
      “Do you think you can train him in the art of sorcery?” Shanni asked.
      “Yes. He has at least suspended disbelief, although he has a strong will and we have little time in which to train.” 
      “Maybe even less time than we thought,” Shanni interjected. 
      “My prescience is warning that our time here is growing short. Some threat is moving toward us in the physical world, forcing us to act.” Tonah looked away with misgiving. Something omnious was about to happen and there was little time to prepare.

About the Book
Anasazi Quest is the third book in the Anasazi Quest series and tells the story of the evils that Shanni and the Huastecs face as they enter Mexico during the chaotic revolutionary times. Despite his aversion to shamanism and sorcery, Caleb is forced to go on a vision quest to learn how to fight the evil Sentinels from the Mayan center that threaten his life and that of Shanni.
