Lots of action, mythology, and excellent characterization to look forward to in this series.<br /><br />As you know, I'm a huge fan of Stagate, particularly SG-1, and I love DragonCon.

For $7 you get to see a very extensive collection of sarcophagi (some with mummies inside) as well as some Grecian and Roman artifacts. The also have a nice collection of mezo-American artifacts. It's got to be one of the best deals in town. And it's a beautiful campus, with a very cool pizza joint and bbq place right down the street.<br /><br />I wanted to thank everyone again for making me feel welcome. It took a bit to realize what you guys were talking about with the golden rooster, but I quickly caught on.

I was so excited to see Shadow Blade at my local Borders today, so I bought a copy. I'm very intrigued by the "challenges" you've given your hero and heroine and really look forward to reading it.<br /><br />Nancy, thanks for bringing Seressia!jo robertsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16824237193217632098noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3815530646091177574.post-21161756780764734792010-02-19T19:45:48.656-05:002010-02-19T19:45:48.656-05:00Hi, AC--

I've been a fan of Ancient Egypt for a very looong time. :-) <br /><br />We have an excellent museum here in Nor Cal (in San Jose) with a replica of an Egyptian tomb and a couple of REAL mummies and their cases. It was my son's favorite museum back when he was a teen. Also, the last time I was in London, I braved hordes of English school children to stare at all the mummy cases in the British Museum.<br /><br />ENJOY your pedicure, Seressia! I just got one on Wed.

That's something of an under-tapped area.<br /><br />Actually, I think I just like paranormals attached to some sort of mythology or legend - makes it feel more real. I just read a book that used the legends of Avalon and King Arthur - liked that as well.<br /><br />Thanks for joining us in the lair, Seressia!

The man opposite her had to be equally tough with an equally angsty or moreso backstory, and since I love ancient Egypt, it wasn't hard to make him a semi-immortal Nubian warrior, keeper of a magical dagger, and spending four thousand years atoning for past sins. I love angst, and the problems these two are going to have to work through and the promises they make to each other drive the series as much as the Shadow fighting does.Seressiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04568727282888354896noreply@blogger.com
