Albert Einstein said that ‘it is the supreme art of the teacher to awaken joy in creative expression and knowledge’. That was certainly the case with my high school history teacher, who brought history alive and started my fascination in Ancient and Early Modern history. There are countless mysteries that still remain unsolved and I have a real suspicion that we have lost or forgotten more knowledge than we have ever gained.
After a career in business, business support and as a trainer for Dale Carnegie, I did some consulting. It was a client who once said to me that ‘I was a useful man to have around’, based to some degree on my ability with the written word. When retirement loomed his words, my interest in history and a very patient and supportive wife encouraged me to ‘put pen to paper’ and with heart in hand resulted in my first book ‘The Quest for Eternal Life', the first in the ‘Last Librarian’ Series. That was several books ago in a growing portfolio.

The Adam Blake Chronicles
|
Having returning a hero from Russia after recovering the stolen Norfolk Emerald and winning the hearts of Countess Bruce and the Empress, he is raised to be a Knight Companion of the Bath by King George.
Despite his growing notoriety and the hope that he'll be left to lead a quiet life, he once again finds himself with Viscount Barrington the King's Spymaster and the King, who is showing distressing signs of madness. He is told news of the Illuminati, a secret organisation formed recently in Bavaria, who are infiltrating influential British and French society to foment revolution as part of a New World Order.
King George insists that Adam is the man to stop them.
So once more propelled unwillingly into what will be the darkest and most dangerous adventure so far, Adam becomes a Member of Parliament, where he encounters the lovely Sarah, is enrolled into the Illuminati and follows its leader and Adam's new love Lady Penelope Alexander to France.
Joining forces with the French Secretary of State for War and the Lieutenant of the Paris Police against the growing Republican movement, Adam uncovers traitors in the family of King Louis where he finds new love with the wife of a Duke and has to use his martial skills to impress the Queen, fight a duel and confront the Illuminati Rex.
Will the Blake luck be with him and the friends and lovers he's made as he joins the French Musketeers, ignores the orders of Viscount Barrington to return to England and continues to hunt down the Illuminati.
