About the author
Angelique Conger
40 books53 followersAngelique Conger, has spent years enticed by the stories of ancient women, challenging her to comb through the Bible, gleaning tidbits of information about them, the little there is. No one knows or tells their stories, even their names are unknown. Many of their husbands’ stories are unknown, as well. Now, Angelique tells their thought-provoking stories as though they sat beside her, whispering into her ear. These are found in her series Ancient Matriarchs.
Angelique discovered the wonders of writing books later in her life. Books, however, have always been important. As a little girl in a small town in southern Utah, she was given her own library card at the tender age of five, highly unusual in those days. She remembers walking the few blocks to the library on her own to choose the maximum number of books allowed in those days, four nice, thick books. She took them back three or four days later for four more. As she got older, she occasionally returned the books a day or two past the limit of two weeks. The librarians allowed her to straighten the stacks to pay off her fines. This introduced her to the Dewey Decimal System of organizing books early in life.
Angelique reads a book or three much of the time. She reads most genre`s of books, often toying with the idea of writing a few herself. Her sister challenged her to participate in NaNoWriMo (National Novel Writing Month) in 2013. She won that year and several others, writing the beginnings of the books in Ancient Matriarchs. Since then, she has spent many hours each day learning the craft of writing, editing, and publishing.
Studying and writing about Eve, and other matriarchs, gave her a deeper understanding of the challenges faced in a new world. Many of the questions women want to know about her life, such as: Who helped her give birth? How did the learn to feed themselves? Who taught Eve about raising children? How did they learn to write? Though the answers cannot be historically accurate, they “feel right.”
Angelique followed her husband around the world as he served in the United States Navy. Her favorite place to live was Hawaii. Though Gibraltar was interesting, it wasn’t her favorite place to live. She received a BED in Education from the University of Hawaii and a MS from Utah State University. She taught grade school for 14 years in Utah.
Angelique strives to do her best to obey the command given to Eve to replenish the earth. She has five children and nine grandchildren, so far. Her goal is to be a noble matriarch like Eve.
Angelique lives in southern Nevada with her husband, love bird, and two turtles. She looks forward to visits from her grandchildren—and their parents.

Into Egypt: Enemies finishes the saga of Mama Egyptus, her family and their village. Ms. Conger has created a very interesting and believable world set in the earliest days of the ancient peoples who lived upon this earth long ago. Just thinking about the trials that the earliest inhabitants had to endure and the daily challenges of life they had to overcome is interesting in itself; yet Ms. Conger has woven a story that not only supplies convincing scenarios and solutions but also serves to entertain as well. A thoughtful and masterful storyteller, she brings her characters to life in such a way that is easy for the reader to become invested in the story. I have thoroughly enjoyed "traveling" this journey through ancient Egypt, and I hope that she has more adventures planned.
