 Local author book signing George DiGuido- "The Tuareg: Blue Man of the Sahara" Tuesday September 15 7:30pm Local author George DiGuido will be signing copies of his historical romance novel "The Tuareg: Blue Man of the Sahara" at The Book Stall in Winnetka. When: Tuesday September 15 7:30pm You can pick up a copy of this thrilling novel as well as meet the brilliant author. Check out the books trailer- The Tuareg: Blue Man of the Sahara - Blazing Trailers, book videos and more The Tuareg (1828-1830) sweeps you into the life andtimes of a young Virginia plantation woman, a dashing aristocratic Frenchman, and a noble, but rough-edged Tuareg chieftain of the desert. This masterfully told story takes place in exotic and diverse locals such as London; the tents of nomadic tribes; the decadent, intrigue-filled Turkish kasbah at Algiers, and the savannah-land country of Africa’s premier slave king. Voyage across three continents, through the beautiful yet cruel Sahara and into the heart of Africa. Excerpt: At first light a lone rider spotted a speck of white far off on the desert floor; instinct whispered it was human; premonition told him it was alive. Seeing airborne vultures the rider dug spurs into his camel’s flank. "Run, Lachlar!" he commanded. "Run as toward an enemy!" The rough-hewn face of the rider echoed the shapes of the desert mountain crags; long nose, straight and ridge-like; angular cheeks as if sculpted by the wind; rock chin covered by a black beard sprinkled gray; lean, strong body – testimony to forty-three years on his beloved Sahara. Swathed in a dark blue burnous, what little skin showed through this swirling fabric was the color of a lion’s coat, but, oddly, tinged with blue. Save for glittering black eyes no other feature was visible; his face was veiled. He was a Tuareg. A "blue man" of the desert. Reviews: “The thought and care that Mr. DiGuido has put into this novel is incredible…History has collided with fiction to form this terrific book.” -Coffee Time Romance  |
