The title of the book came to me when my brother asked if I would write a novel about an ancient civilization. Tubal-Cain is the name of a man expert in using metals, as noted in the book of Genesis. I assumed a city would have to support such technology, and thus, Tuball: The Lost City was born. The story centers around Shem, a young man of eighteen, bored of simple farming life. He ventures off into strange new lands, getting into trouble with unknown tribes and fierce creatures. He also falls in love with a beautiful girl who worships foreign gods.
Excitement in this book builds, like a snowball rolling downhill, with some very interesting twists toward the end. If you like fact based fiction, adventure and discovery, you will be sure to enjoy this one.

Book Review
"Tuball: The Lost City is a fascinating book to read. Because of the populated areas told about, I am assuming this was a time before the flood with which God destroyed the world. It was great fun to read what one author has envisioned about those days long ago. The Sethites, those descended from Seth, believed in the one, true God, talked to Him, worshipping only Him. Those of Cain, the slayer of Able, called Cainites, worshipped many gods. This greatly disturbed Shem, and his outspokenness often got him into some tightly dangerous situations. How God protected him throughout, no matter what he faced - even death - is wonderful reading. If you love historical fiction, especially ancient history, you'll enjoy this book."
