“There are a lot of beliefs out there. Some people think we got here by spacecraft. Some think we evolved, like Humans, but in a slightly different direction. Some think we were created by God, after Adam and Eve were banished from the Garden of Eden. However we came to be, the truth of the matter is, there are two species that are near-identical in every way that inhabit the Earth. One is Human, one is Mengliad.” What would you do if you learned that there was a separate Human-like species on the planet? Jessica Mitchell is about to be faced with that very question. The strange flu bug she seems to have caught quickly becomes the least of her worries. While on her way home from work, she passes out in Central Park, only to regain consciousness hours later, under the gaze of a kind but odd stranger. This Good Samaritan offers his assistance, and subsequently opens the gate to a world she knows nothing about. Initially, Jessica is reluctant to believe what Craddock Daniels tells her, but after the unsettling reality sinks in, she feels she has no choice but to follow him and his friends. Changes are taking place, and she is now in danger because of them. Will Craddock be able to protect her? Does Jessica possess the strength to endure all that is happening to her? Can love really blossom under the direst of circumstances? THE MENGLIAD is a romance adventure novel with a sci-fi flavor. At over 112,000 words, this story evokes a sense of how horrible it would be to have everything you knew pulled from under you. |

“The book was very well written and the story line was great. … The author also did a wonderful job with the interactions between the characters. It was all very believable and natural feeling. I enjoyed the book and hope there will be a sequel available soon. The ending left me wanting more!” – JCPhelps “Very nice, cinematic type of opening. The author describes The Mengliad as ‘romance adventure novel with a sci-fi flavor’--a very apt description! … The emotional (includes romantic/sexual feelings) territory is well-navigated, with snappy dialogue and enough tension and suspense to keep you reading page after page.” – Jess “I enjoyed this book right from the beginning. It was well written and full of action. I found myself mesmerized by the story; completely drawn into it. Jana’s way of keeping the action going is refreshing. Every time I thought the story was about to wrap up, she threw another twist in there, keeping the story alive and exciting.” – Dawn “I love the story so far (and am quite sure I will continue to love it). I really enjoy your style of writing and the voice as well. Very well written!” – JC “…if you want romance and drama, with plenty of tension, a healthy dose of sci-fi, a smattering of action, and some extremely tasteful, well-written steamy scenes, then The Mengliad will be right up your alley.” – Keith “The Mengliad is a hugely entertaining read following Jessica's adventures as she avoids the purists while falling in love with her newly found Mengliad soul mate.” – Imogen “If you are a lover of suspense, a lover of adventure, a lover of the thread we call love that binds us together, you must read Mengliad!” – Harrison “…a wonderful action romance novel, full of twists, turns, suspense, and awesomeness.” – Julian “I can recommend this book to anyone who enjoys science fiction, action, romance or anything in between. Read this and lose yourself in the world created by Jana Janeway.” – Sierra “…if this first novel is any indication, we can look forward to reading great things from this author in the future....I highly recommend this book whether you're interested in science fiction, romance, suspense, or thrillers.” – J.
