Christopher C Doyle Profile

The thrill of secrets to be discovered. The fascination of mysteries to be solved. The spine-chilling suspense while watching the hero embark on a dangerous adventure. The joy of watching the evil villain lose. That empty feeling when the book is over. That’s what a children’s book should be about. Christopher C Doyle

Christopher C. Doyle is a bestselling author who transports the reader into a fascinating world where ancient secrets buried in legends blend with science and history to create a gripping story.

In April 2018, Christopher released Son of Bhrigu, the first book in The Pataala Prophecy series: a new fantasy thriller series set in present-day India.
