This is the same novel that the Discovery Channel considered for a video project on the Flores Island hobbit find. Additionally the realistic depiction of Homo floresiensis in the novel was based on feedback from some of the leading physical anthropologists in the field. This is the very same novel that sparked inquiries from the National Geographic Channel for both its realism and relevancy regarding the controversial fossil find on Flores Island!
The novel follows the adventures of two scientists Sarah and Richard and their discovery of the existence of a living human ancestor Homo floresiensis on an isolated tropical island near Flores. These small hobbit-like creatures are not the hobbits of JRR Tolkien’s stories but a small tribe of prehistoric people called the Ebu Gogo living in isolation for nearly a half million years on the Indonesian island of Irmã Flores. In their unrelenting quest for knowledge Sarah and Richard unintentionally expose these innocents to the onslaught of the modern world including corporate criminals Indonesian pirates and religious zealots. Moreover while struggling with the magnitude of their find Sarah and Richard are forced to reconcile their own very different and often times conflicting personalities. In the process of discovery and befriending these ancient people Sarah and Richard rediscover their own humanity and perhaps the opportunity to find true love.
Now the science fiction adventure continues in Emptiness and the Warrior. As a typhoon bears down on Flores Island Sarah is forced to return to the states alone broken-hearted and without Richard. For Sarah there is little time for remorse before a careless traffic accident leaves Sarah hospitalized and completely defenseless. As sinister forces learn of Sarahs Flores discovery they plan to systematically torture her physically and mentally in an effort to learn her secrets.
Just as Sarah nears the breaking point she begins a psychic odyssey that will take her on an incredible spiritual journey as she discovers just who she is and who she is capable of becoming. From her weakness will come strength for Sarah as her adventure continues and she learns of Richard’s sad fate on Irma Flores.
This is the start of a busy year for the Flores Girl Trilogy. The release of the long awaited sequel to the Flores Girl trilogy “Emptiness and the Warrior” from author Erik John Bertel is due for release in Spring 2015.

About the Author:
Erik John Bertel (pronounced bûr-tel' as in burr-tell) the author of the Flore Girl Trilogy survived SUNY at Stony Brook with a degree in biology while training as a physical anthropologist. Erik actually studied with some of the same team that examined the bones from the Homo floresiensis find. Originally conceived as an adventure story centered about Richard the alcoholic and womanizing scientist the novel took a decided different turn with the introduction of Sarah Levine the temperamental and sensitive protagonist to Richard. Sarah's presence allowed the concept of the original novel to develop into a trilogy and beyond. In the second novel "Emptiness and the Warrior" Sarah is physically and spiritually transformed from the victim of the first novel into a classic reluctant hero. As the trilogy and characters evolved so did opportunities for other related novels. In total seven novels in the Flores Girl series are being planned including a prequel titled the "The Erotic Bodhisattva" and three sequels to the original trilogy.
