More so, because a very dear older friend of mine could have served as a model for her. From the first moment Amelia came on the page, I thought, "Helen, to a 'T.'" She died recently, but I'll continue to read Amelia and think of her. <br /><br />All the lovely comments here have given me even more authors and books to check out. Certainly looking forward to yours.<br /><br />Thanks for the delightful post.Barbara Bettishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16540961829243251471noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1360784031875264514.post-89271099577673506892012-07-15T15:31:22.468-04:002012-07-15T15:31:22.468-04:00@Christina Wolfer

The Warrior of Bast and The Chosen of Horu are set in an alternate Egypt because while doing research I discovered camels weren't present during the time period I'd chosen, Love Elizabeth Peters, too.Janet Lane Waltershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15488093917556546485noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1360784031875264514.post-70636539182936226422012-07-15T14:40:07.449-04:002012-07-15T14:40:07.449-04:00@Sasha Summers

It came out in May. The book explores what led to Medusa'a transformation and is a bit 'Galdiator-esque', but I like to think it's a solid read. :)<br />Here's the link to my blog page with the book blurb and the cover. <br />http://sashasummers.com/?page_id=760<br />If you read it, I'd love to hear your thoughts.

I LOVE all things Greek and Roman - film and books, across the genres (mystery, romance, fantasy, etc.) My first novel, Medusa,A Love Story came out a few months ago. I'm very proud of it. If you're a fan of mythology, consider it for your TBR list.

The Egyptian gods have awakened from their slumber. Three sisters hold the key to Underworld gods salvation. <br /><br />The more I research the more facinated I become with the ancient religion.<br /><br />Although most Egyptian based books are historical, my modern twist has been well received. <br /><br />Soul Reborn was released last year and Soul Awakened is due out this year. I'm celebrating my one year anniversary- today is the last day of sale for $0.99 at ARe http://www.allromanceebooks.com/product-soulreborn-546847-140.html <br /><br />Can't wait to see the variation of books posted here.

The Husband and I are both enthusiastic amateur Egyptologists who work very closely with the American Research Center in Egypt. We met through Egyptology and he even proposed to me in Egypt in a moonlit garden across the road from the Pyramids, no less.<br /><br />I have published two books about Egypt - PASSION'S CHOICE, a romantic time travel about a modern young woman who finds herself back in the time of woman pharaoh Hatshepsut. Not only that, she is immediately mistaken for a pleasure woman. Before long she is embroiled in politics and falling deeply in love. When the time comes that she can go home, she must make passion's choice whether to go or stay.<br /><br />The second book is a modern horror novella called LURE OF THE MUMMY, about a linguist loser in my beloved Cairo who acquires an ancient cat mummy, which may - or may not - be a simple votive mummy. <br /><br />One thing about which I am fanatic is historical accuracy. Nothing drives me more wild than seeing a novel set in Ancient Egypt where they talk about totally anachronistic things, such as cotton, lemons, rice or reference to dynasties. That makes the book an instant wallbanger.Janis Susan Mayhttp://www.janissusanmay.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1360784031875264514.post-45555465724296044692012-07-15T07:54:42.632-04:002012-07-15T07:54:42.632-04:00I eagerly await every new Amanda Peabody novel-- A...I eagerly await every new Amanda Peabody novel-- Amanda with her umbrella and her husband, "the Father of Curses."
