An Amazon Review ...Sons of the Sphinx is a riveting madcap ride through a fascinating time in Ancient Egypt's history. Readers meet not only King Tut but his controversial father, King Akenhaten, and his famous stepmother, Queen Nefertiti. Insights are given into ancient life, and Egyptian mythology is explored. Best of all, the story is both fun and educational. An Amazon Review A definitely different take on Egyptian lore and when a long dead pharahor makes an appearance in a young high school girl's room, she's really not ready for what comes next. It was a quick read with some humor and sarcasm in a good way(of course). An Amazon Review CROSSING THE SANDS OF TIME--The author has done a marvelous job of negotiating the disputed points of this era and woven them into a seamless time travel historical adventure for middle grade, teen readers and adults. Her characters are well-developed and manage to appear authentic in both the ancient and modern time periods.
