Amarna Age

As a princess and daughter of the great Pharaoh Akhenaten, Ankhesenpaaten knows she is intended for an important marriage. But as the Asiatic Plague takes her mother and one of her sisters, and childbirth steals two other sisters, she finds herself in a position she never expected: Queen of Egypt. The new pharaoh's advisors fear Ankhesenpaaten's remaining sisters might be used by a competing political faction wanting to steal the throne. With Intef, her new captain, at her side, Ankhesenpaaten is advised to deal with the "problem" of her younger sisters. As long as more than one daughter of Akhenaten is alive, Ankhesenpaaten is disposable. Daughter of the Sun is a prequel novella to both The Amarna Age series and The Amarna Princesses series.

Stripped of all authority and confined to her chambers, Ankhesenamun finally does the unthinkable, she sends a message to the Hittite king offering the throne to one of his sons. But, before the Hittite prince can arrive, the chief advisors find out. Ankhesenamun needs a way to control the advisors and reclaim her position before someone else takes her place on the throne. Because the advisors only need one daughter of Akhenaten alive... Blending history and fantasy, The Amarna Age series brings the world of 18th Dynasty Egypt to life.

Ankhesenamun has lost everything. Thrax and Tutankhamun are dead, she was forced to make Ay pharaoh, and now she's being sent to work as a slave in the gold mines. But there is one thing that might save her yet: the Eye of Horus, a fabled artefact which supposedly confers ultimate power on the one who wields it. If she can find it, it might help her to take back the throne and avoid war with the Hittites. But the gods don't intend the Eye to be easily found and they've barely even begun testing Ankhesenamun to see if she's strong enough to wield it. The Amarna Age is set in 18th Dynasty Egypt in a world where the old gods have been worshipped for thousands of years and magic is a matter of belief. For readers of dark fantasy who enjoy an historical setting.

The Eye of Horus is almost within Ankhesenamun's grasp. She now knows it definitely exists and she even knows where it was hidden just a few years ago. But when she reaches her destination, what awaits her there is nothing like she had expected. She was warned the gods wouldn't allow the Eye to be easily found. She was told she might crave its power for herself. She didn't take either warning seriously enough. Ankhesenamun will be tested until she breaks and only then will the gods decide whether she is permitted to wield the Eye. But even if they decide she is worthy, will the price be more than she can pay? The Amarna Age is set in 18th Dynasty Egypt in a world where the old gods have been worshipped for thousands of years and magic is a matter of belief. For readers of dark fantasy who enjoy an historical setting.

Once again she will have to decide just how much she's willing to give up to achieve her aim. This is the final instalment in The Amarna Age series.
