Mongolian Fiction

In the wilds of Mongolia, a research satellite has crashed, triggering an explosive search for its valuable cargo: a code-black physics project connected to the study of dark energy...and a shocking image of the eastern seaboard of the United States in utter ruin. At the Vatican, a package arrives containing two strange artifacts: a skull scrawled with ancient Aramaic and a tome bound in human skin. DNA evidence reveals that both came from the same body: the long-dead Mongol king Genghis Khan.

Mandukhai inherited a fractured nation. Now, she must turn it into a whole empire. Manduul Khan is dead, and he named Mandukhai queen regent until a new great Khan is selected. This should be a simple matter of choosing the man who stole her heart long ago, but the spirit of Genghis and his cryptic promise makes one thing abundantly clear: The fate of the Mongol Nation cannot be decided by the whims of her heart.

Anna loves her peaceful world. Even so, she begins her third year at Quentin Academy with bad premonitions. Carlotta flies to Mongolia to rescue six-year-old Inara, a child with a unique and powerful gift and whose family has been killed. Anna and her family want to do everything for Inara's safety, but can they really protect her? Then disaster strikes. During a flight maneuver with the new express carpets, something happens that never happened before—a carpet crashes. Who are the unseen enemies that threaten Anna's world?

Mandukhai dedicated years to raising Dayan to become Great Khan. But trust is tenuous when buried secrets rise to the surface. Old enemies close in. New enemies arise. And Mandukhai faces one of her toughest hardships just as her vision is nearly complete...a crisis that could undo everything she has worked for all of her life.

Genghis Khan united a nation and created a vast empire for his heirs. But after 200 years of civil war, his empire has fallen into the dark ages. Mandukhai dreams of being a fierce warrior woman, but her dreams are shattered when she is forced to become the second wife to the Great Khan.

From Beijing, American radiation scientist Lara, once a thorn in the Russian mob's side, is drawn back into the shadows of the Soviet Union on the Trans-Mongolian Express. She isn't alone. Anton, a Soviet scientist exiled for predicting Chernobyl's catastrophe, is on a quest to expose the truth. Amidst them, Timur, a Chechen giant fueled by vengeance, plots to destroy the already crumbling Soviet Union.

Harold Kushner and his roommate of 30 years, Murray Schwartz, are average senior citizens facing down their mortality in a trailer park in Land O' Lakes, Florida. Two self-professed “best Jewish bowlers ever” wind up contestants in the first-ever Great Mongolian Bowling League Tournament in the US. The rivalry becomes a high-stakes roll-off as Harold approaches “perfection” (defined in the bowling world as three 300-score games in a row) despite a fix set by the alley's mobster owners.
