Publication Consultants, 2013 - Fiction - 354 pages

The Winds of Change novel series examines a few issues: * When people came to the Americas, * Who came to the Americas, and * From where did they come? The Winds of Change novel series views the peopling of the Americas primarily from research over the last 15 years. The series takes the "what if" perspective. What might it have been like if the Americas abounded in human life long before 12,000 years ago? The first book in the series, Ki'ti's Story, 75,000 BC (2012), is the foundation for the novel series, and it takes place in what is today southern China. The second book in the series, Manak-na's Story, 75,000 BC (2013), involves an adventure from China to Mexico and return. More books will follow. In this book, read to discover whether Manak-na can keep the promise he made to his wife to take only the one adventure, the dream of his life since childhood, or whether the one experience has turned him into an adventurer.

About the author

Bonnye Matthews was born in Richmond, Virginia. She taught English and has written in every job she's had whether in academia, business, industry, volunteer work, or government. She became interested in the peopling of the Americas when taking a history class. That would have been the end of it had not the professor cautioned her that her rejection of the tradition of the land bridge concept and especially the Clovis people as the first Americans and their slaughter of the megafauna was going against significant archaeology and history authorities. He was right. Bonnye spent years researching. As a result of that research the Winds of Change Series was born. Bonnye enjoys living in the beautiful Matanuska-Susitna Valley in Alaska.
