    Dear Dr. R. Keith Fisher and Marianne R. H. Fisher,

    I hope you’re doing well.

    My name is Ebony Walker, and I’d like to personally invite your book Mesopotamia (Time Maps Book 6) to be featured in our growing reader community.

    I recently came across your work and was impressed by its rich exploration of ancient Mesopotamian culture and its lasting influence on human thought and civilization. Your ability to combine a mathematician’s precision with a historian’s curiosity creates a compelling and insightful narrative that brings early societies, beliefs, and innovations vividly to life. The way your book connects ancient mindsets to modern perspectives offers readers a deeper appreciation of our shared human heritage.

    Our community of over 3,000 active readers thrives on discovering thought-provoking and intellectually engaging works like yours. Featuring your book with us would allow readers to explore these historical insights, share perspectives, and engage in meaningful discussions about the foundations of civilization and cultural continuity.

    Additionally, your book could be included in our 2026 Reading Challenge, including the 52 Book Club Challenge, where readers read, discuss, and highlight impactful titles throughout the year helping your work gain continued visibility and engagement.

    If this is something you’d be interested in, simply reply “Yes” and I’ll guide you through the next steps.

    Hello Marianne,

    I spent some time exploring your Time Maps series, and what stands out is how you bring together historical analysis with myth, cosmology, and the deeper symbolic frameworks people have used to understand time and existence. That blend of precision and interpretive depth gives the work a distinctive voice, especially in areas like evolution, early civilizations, and belief systems.

    It feels very much aligned with the kind of titles librarians tend to value for both academic curiosity and long-term reader engagement—particularly where history intersects with big questions about human origins and cultural meaning.

    I’m involved with coordinating part of an author showcase connected to the ALA Annual Conference in Chicago, where works like this are reviewed for institutional collections and reader advisory. Your series struck me as something that could resonate well in that space.

    If you’d ever be open to exploring that further, feel free to reach out — I’d be glad to share a bit more:

    Warm regards,
    Jon
