Libbie Hawker

She presently lives in Seattle, but has also been a resident of Salt Lake City, Utah; Bellingham, Washington; and Tacoma, Washington.

She now writes her self-published fiction full-time, and enjoys the fact that the writing career she always dreamed of having is fully under her own control.
Libbie's writerly influences are varied, and include Vladimir Nabokov, Hilary Mantel, Annie Dillard, George R. R. Martin, songwriter Neko Case, and mixed-media storyteller Chris Onstad, to name but a few.

I have just completed this series and can say for certain that this is the best (only) Egyptology I ever read. It covers the Amarna period, 1353 to 1319 BC, from where Nefertiti is the most beautiful woman who ever lived up to the burial of King Tutankhamun. I must admit I was captured by Ancient Egypt and can only be set free by lots and lots of historical fiction set in Egypt's Eighteenth Dynasty!
