Judas Iscariot (portrayed as the first of the undead), the gods and myths of ancient Egypt, and vampires all play a role in this novel of the clash between good and evil on Earth. In Façade of Shadows, the supernatural beings of Egyptian lore work together with modern-day vampire slayers to wage a pivotal battle against the dark powers of the underworld. A group of young slayers and their immortal Protector, the son of ancient gods, travel through time and space while struggling to save the population of an unsuspecting town—the first target for domination by the vampires—in a conflict that foreshadows the fate of the world. If you enjoy action, humor, tragedy, even romance involving the genre of vampires and their nemeses, this is a riveting read to add to your collection.

Review by Gia:
I loved Facade of Shadows. It's a little different then what I normal read and I think that what made it so good. It's a YA dark fantasy. At first glance I thought it was going to be just another vampire story but it is so much more. Facade of Shadows has Egyptian mythology and paranormal aspects mixed together in a very well written story.
The prologue pulled me right into the book. Then it took off in what I thought was a different was a different direction but aspects of the prologue get pulled into the story and in the end it makes perfect sense.
I loved all the characters. My favorite was Dominique, she was funny and serious all wrapped up in one.
This book definitely had me wondering and trying to guess what would come next. It's a great read!

I've often been accused of having done more in my life than the average person my age but if I were completely honest, I'd have to tell you my secret: I'm really 392.
So after all this time, I'm a pretty crappy writer.
I have two books published and a bunch half written (when you have eternity, where's the reason to rush?). I've been favorably reviewed by horror greats like Nancy Kilpatrick, and my how-to-write-horror articles have been quoted in scholarly (aka community college freshmen's) papers.
I enjoy the occasional Bloody Mary, although a Bloody Kathy or Susan will suffice.
Mostly, I just try to keep a low profile so people don't figure out who I REALLY am.
