Pennsylvania Author Rene Daniel Announces Dramatic Increase In Sales Of 'Spear Of Seth' And The Release Of A New Novel


Daniel describes his genre as ‘Falenture’, a blend of fantasy, legend and adventure. ‘Spear Of Seth', written in the spirit of ‘Indiana Jones’ and ‘House Of Anubis’ takes modern day archaeologists into the Egyptian Underworld. 'Last Secret Of Nikola Tesla', his next fantasy adventure novel, is slated for release in mid 2012

Pennsylvania author Rene Daniel's fantasy adventure novel, ‘Spear of Seth’, is written in the spirit of 'Indiana Jones' and 'House of Anubis'. The novel takes modern day archaeologists into the Egyptian Underworld. 'Spear Of Seth' is a blend of fantasy, legend and adventure. Daniel has termed this new genre ‘Falenture’. His next novel, 'Last Secret Of Nikola Tesla', follows the same popular format.

"Storylines such as those found in the 'Indiana Jones' series and 'House Of Anubis'," said Mr. Daniels, "never seem to go out of favor with the book buying public. These type of stories all the reader to live vicariously and to lose themselves in the story. I believe the blend of fantasy, legend and adventure, something I've termed 'Falenture', is responsible for the increased popularity and readership of 'Spear Of Seth'."

Alex Khyan, the protagonist of ‘Spear of Seth’, is a premed student of the Van Senmut College, who gets a summer job as a translator at an archeological dig at the island of Elephantine in the Upper Egypt. Here he meets Heather Van Senmut and her father, John Van Senmut, a grandson of the founder of the college and the archeologist in charge of the excavations. The dig is not just some dig; it is the ruins of the Temple of Osiris, which stands at the mythical place where Nile emerges from the Egyptian Underworld. When John Van Senmut, falls ill and physicians give up on him, his daughter decides to search the Temple for the cause of the disease and possibly a cure. Her quest leads her, and her unwilling helper Alex, into the Netherworld, which survived the Egyptian civilization by two thousand years. They negotiate its dangers, as well as dangers that come from their contemporaries. They do have only one guide – the Book of Gates, which decorates the sarcophagus of the pharaoh Seti.

"In 'Last Secret Of Nikola Tesla'," continued Mr. Daniel, "I hope to be able to build upon the success of 'Spear Of Seth' and to continue to offer readers another novel that combines fantasy, legend and adventure".

Mr. Daniel is offering a no-charge electronic copy of "Last Secret Of Nikola Tesla’ to anyone who writes a review for 'Spear Of Seth' on Amazon or on their own blog.

Profile:

In his other life, Rene Daniel is a physician and a researcher in the fields of gene therapy, HIV and aging. Writing is his great love. He refers to his genre as FALENTURE - a mix of fantasy, legends and adventure.

Unlike a classical fantasy, FALENTURE builds on and sticks close to epic legends of human history, and asks a question: what if they are/were real? Is there really an Egypt Underworld? Was there really a Lost City of Z? What if the mysterious late inventions of Nikola Tesla worked? A FALENTURE could be compared to a combination of Lord Of Rings, The DaVinci Code and Indiana Jones.
