Author Diane Olsen is the Bronze Medal Winner by Illumination Christian Book Awards and Finalist for the 2017 TCK Publishers Readers Choice Awards. Rising Wind: The Thunder Beings, her new heart-pounding adventure romance novel, is launching with a bang on January 10th at only 99 cents.
When impassioned paleontologist Secora James is summoned to South America to confirm or dispel rumors of a creature long thought extinct, she lands herself in more trouble than she had ever imagined.
Secora knows that the Mapinguari, a giant ground sloth that rivals King Kong for size, is probably just a local myth dreamed up by the indigenous tribes.
Or is it?
Gideon Yellow Thunder is Montana’s top real estate broker and is perfectly content with his modern life, choosing to leave behind his Lakota heritage in order to lead a life of wealth and success. But when he starts having visions of bison on the open prairie, he feels compelled to act…Now two separate lives are on a collision course as Gideon sets off for the jungles of Brazil to find a woman he’s never met and protect the sacred beings he’d long given up believing in–the Thunderbirds.
Could they be real after all?
Or are they just a myth? Gideon’s about to find out in the adventure of a lifetime, where everything he’d pushed aside is determined to leave its mark on his life.
Hoka hey! It’s a good day to die.

“Intrigue at its finest! If you enjoy a good mystery, this is the page turner for you! You will laugh, cry, and miss hours of sleep. A good author is one who has your heart beating fast at the end of each chapter and also has you talking out loud to the main character. I found myself telling Secora, “Don’t go there, stop, don’t do that!” as danger approached her on more than one occasion. This is a delightful read. Diane has researched her Thunder Beings and brings the reader right into the center of the search for them. I have to wonder if Diane went along with Secora to witness all she wrote about; it is that vivid!. Write faster Diane, I want to read more of the series. Congratulations, Best Seller’s List here you come!” -Amazon Reviewer

Olsen’s debut book is titled Ancient Ways: The Roots of Religion. It is thought-provoking and an informative look at the development and evolution of religion throughout time and a well-considered concept–the idea of a connective thread of monotheistic faith throughout the history from the birth of human creation.
