On another level (no longer visible in this world) my favorite is Avalon... Your cover is amazing and so is the fact you are writing about a civilization and place most people don't know -- a true adventure in every sense! Best of luck with sales.

The only thing I don't like about Havasu is the lack of trees like pine trees. But the mountains and lake are beautiful.

I've been to Arizona three or four times but not to Sedona. If I make it again I'll probably not want to leave Sedona. A heart warming excerpt you've given us. When I hear of the Hittites I always think of the wonderful character in the Bible called Uriah. Although only appearing briefly he is a favorite character of mine.

I have added your name to my TBR list.<br />I live in Arizona and have visited Sedona many times. We go to the Jazz Festival every year there. The photo you have includes what the locals call "the tea pot".
