| The time has come to start talking about my new book, Hand of Isis! Hand of Isis will be out from Orbit in the US and UK in March, and I'm terribly excited! Set in Egypt in the time of Cleopatra, Hand of Isis follows the life of her handmaiden and half-sister, Charmian. For three centuries Egypt has known peace under the rule of the Ptolemies, but now that is threatened by the rising power of Rome. As Egypt struggles to maintain its independence in the face of a new world empire, Cleopatra is its reigning queen and Charmian stands at her right hand. It's a story of lovers who defy even death, of fatal encounters between Roman generals for the rule of the world, and of the Gods of Egypt who seek to preserve all that has been won. Handmaiden, royal minister, and avatar of Isis Pelagia, Charmian's fate is bound to Egypt -- through death and beyond. ( READ ON for the Prologue behind the cut ) Interested in pre-ordering? Hand of Isis is available on Amazon US here: http://www.amazon.com/Hand-Isis-Jo-Grah | |||
