  You couldn’t make it to the launch Abduction of a Slave last month? Aw.    In the video you will also see me remove the cover to show off what Carolyn called "the Tiffany Box packaging" (when she’s right she’s right), along with the gilt image of Montu’s face on the spine. It’s taken from the cover image, which is repeated as a line break in the text. I love Head of Zeus’ book designers with all my heart.    Barbara says there are still signed copies of the first edition available. The snazzy bookmark, the two-sided postcard, and the fun stickers will be included with each copy sold until they run out of one or the other. Order now! And of course there’s an Isis4 mug. I mean, have you met me? Lastly, I’ve added a new feature to the blog, Lagniappe Sunday, a weekly post filled with bits and bobs of fun and/or interesting stuff I’ve come across on line, always with a musical outro that is not meant to keep your feet still. Take a look.   Death of an Eye introduces us to Tetisheri, lifelong friend of Cleopatra, the Lady of Two Lands and ruler of Egypt. The queen’s Eye is struck down in the streets of Alexandria and Cleopatra tasks her friend to find the murderer and bring them to justice.    |
