Thank you so much! It's amazing how many of us are connected by our love for, and our fascination with the vastness of ancient Egypt ad all that it encompasses. *loves* I can understand why you would have been easily ensnared as a child.
I totally fell hard for the elemental magic, the medicines, the protective jewellery, the clothing, the irrigation systems, the spices... It was so hard to put down the books! The mythology itself would have taken me month and months if I hadn't gotten strict with myself and set up limits for just how much research I was going to do. heh.
I'm so glad you felt the story come alive. There's no higher compliment for a writer. *hugs* thank you, again, so much!
