About this ebook
It all began with a catastrophic engine failure...
A desperate crash landing...
A satellite that found the impact site...
Temporal field agents were sent back...
Where they witnessed the impact and discovered so much more...
Did a meteor impact kill a pharaoh?
It all began with an engine failure that led to a crash landing. The event and its aftermath were chronicled by two ancient Egyptian hieratic papyri. The satellite discovery of the impact site prompted the dispatch of Dr. Joseph Richards, Vesna Gregorieva, and Colonel Cartwright’s security team to the scene. What they found was more than they bargained for.
Based upon that present-day foray into the Egyptian desert, a temporal drop of a purely scientific nature was approved. Once on the scene, Richards and Gregorieva witness the impact and discover so much more.
Iron from the Sky is the last book of award-winning series, The Manuscripts of the Richards’ Trust. For those faithful readers of the five book series, the content of this book falls between book two—Recovery, and book three—The Children of Ptah.
W.J. Cherf
W.J. Cherf has always wanted to write a book without footnotes, to tell a fascinating tale that is so real that his avid readers are left puzzled over what was real and what was Memorex. To craft such a tale takes wit, a love of science fiction, and above all a deep reverence for ancient history and archaeology. All of these qualities are stitched together beautifully in his books, because Cherf has been there, dug that. He’s even seen the sun rise from atop the Great Pyramid.Reviews have been generous:“Bow Tie: Two Thumbs Up”“Imagine a dinner party thrown by Tom Clancy, where he sits EE “Doc” Smith next to HG Wells”“Amazing story, fascinating detail, a fabulous read”“Cherf has done a wonderful job combining facts from Egyptian history and a fictional story to create a compelling trilogy of intrigue and espionage”“What an enjoyable experience reading this series!”With a BA in Anthropology, MA in Egyptian Archaeology, and Ph.D. in Ancient History, Cherf remains current as an elected officer of Denver’s Egyptian Studies Society and is a member of a national service organization called SERTOMA, SERvice TO MANkind, that is devoted to hearing disabilities. Living with his beloved wife Sue, they keep Foxbat 1 out in the garage. They enjoy golf, road racing (that’s where Foxbat comes in), and cheering for the Cubs and Chicago Bears.
