Robert Smith writes books. After a lifetime of what can only be described as work, he now follows his passion and writes books. Books that make you think; and books that cross genres. Alternative history, sci-fi, contemporary and historical narrative non-fiction.

The Southeast Asia trilogy spans the formation and magnificence of the Khmer Empire, the builders of Angkor Wat in "The Kings of Angkor," and moves onto the kingdom that finally conquered the Angkorian empire in "The Kings of Ayutthaya." The trilogy concludes with "The Kings of the Toungoo Empire," the largest empire in the history of Southeast Asia, and one many have never heard of. If you are visiting Cambodia, Thailand, or Myanmar these books are the perfect companion. If you are Robert Smith writes books.

The Southeast Asia trilogy spans the formation and magnificence of the Khmer Empire, the builders of Angkor Wat in "The Kings of Angkor," and moves onto the kingdom that finally conquered the Angkorian empire in "The Kings of Ayutthaya." The trilogy concludes with "The Kings of the Toungoo Empire," the largest empire in the history of Southeast Asia, and one many have never heard of. If you are visiting Cambodia, Thailand, or Myanmar these books are the perfect companion. If you are interested in a history with which you are unfamiliar then these books introduce you gently as a narrative rather than as a staid history book. Comments are hard-won but the one I like for the series is a simple one-word review "immersive."

From the self-published “1809; The Year They Freed the Slaves” to the published “The Kings of Ayutthaya” to the contemporary “The Will of the People,” his nine books (to date) will either make you question what you think or introduce you to something with which you are unfamiliar. “1809” will make you question why slavery in the United States was not ended earlier, “The Kings” will introduce you to the development and magnificence of Angkor and Ayutthaya, and to the capital of the Toungoo Empire, Pegu – a splendid city, one eventually destroyed by conquest.

“The Will of the People," ("The New World Order,” in paperback) is set ten years in the future and is a fast-moving political thriller that makes you question what you believe. As one publisher put it, "Hugely entertaining, but not for us."

The Annunaki Series has now been published as a compilation although the five books in the series remain available as independent books.

"The Annunaki" tells the story of the Annunaki commencing 14.2 million years ago when they selected mankind to develop by enhancing our DNA and giving early man the telepathic powers that they themselves enjoy. The book tells of the impact that they had on our history through time in a series of short stories.

The second book in the series "The Revenge of the Druids" looks at one repercussion of their enhancement of our genes as a schooner beaches of the coast of Chesapeake Bay in the mid-1800's. The schooner is a "coffin ship" containing a shipload of the dead from the Irish potato famine. Through an intermediary a miasma is released that terrorizes America in a way never envisaged before.

"Deep State" traces the story of a team of investigative journalists as they find evidence of the existence of aliens and evidence of a long standing government cover-up. Their work leads to the government admitting that they have known about alien visitations over the decades.

The fourth book in the series "2022; The Return of the Annunaki" sees the prophesies of their return come true. The Annunaki come to judge mankind on their husbandry of the planet. The future of mankind is challenged as they decide if we are a fit species to remain the dominant species on Planet Earth.
This book has proved very popular as it views what mankind is doing to the planet from the perspective of another civilization.

The fifth book "The Annunaki: The Reckoning" is exactly that. That book was followed by the last in the series :Armageddon.

"Murder in the Blood."
A Dynasty of Serial Killers, Father to Son
Former golden boy of Savannah PD, Detective Clyde Monroe has been tucked away in the cold case unit following his over-reaction to finding his wife in bed with the next-door neighbor’s wife. The opportunity for redemption comes when he visits a body discovered at a local golf course. Sensing that due to the manner of the crime that this may not be a lone kill he digs deeper requesting information from other cold case units. A ...more

I'm back!

Over the past few years I have had trouble logging on to Goodreads but today I cracked it and am attempting to update my author page.

There have been a few changes in the interim period, the five books in the Annunaki series being the most notable but I would like to update some of the information given. Once a book has been published it cannot be unpublished. It can be delisted but its shell remai Read more of this blog post »
