Charles Brokaw is a pseudonym for an author who is well-known for his adventure/thriller novels. He is also an academic and a college educator, currently residing in the Midwest of the United States. Brokaw has a deep interest in history, human achievement, and archaeology, which is often reflected in his writing. His fascination with these subjects led him to write the Thomas Lourds series.
Brokaw's debut novel, The Atlantis Code, was inspired by an article he read in a scholarly journal. The article featured a satellite photo of some ruins in Spain that bore a striking resemblance to Plato's description of Atlantis. Because the ruins were located in a popular national park, Brokaw was certain that they would never be excavated. This realization sparked his imagination, and he began to think about the treasures that might be buried beneath the earth. These thoughts gave birth to The Atlantis Code, his first fantasy fiction thriller.
Brokaw's rich and varied life experiences have provided him with a wealth of knowledge and insight, which he skillfully weaves into his writing. His novels are well-researched and meticulously crafted, capturing the excitement and intrigue of the thriller genre while also shedding light on historical and archaeological mysteries. With his Thomas Lourds series, Brokaw has established himself as a master of the adventure/thriller genre, delivering fast-paced, action-packed novels that keep readers on the edge of their seats.
