Along the Nile elegantly weaves pre-dynastic Egyptian history together with action, romance, and mysticism. Although the first recorded Egyptian Pharoah Narmer, unifier of Upper and Lower Egypt, is known only from the Narmer Palette at the Egyptian Museum, King Narmer emerges fully fleshed in this novel. Told by Heb, Pharoah’s servant, the many facets of Ancient Egypt come to life. Heb’s story is an adventure story set alongside the mighty river’s bank, and a love story of passion, loss, and spiritual regeneration. Avoiding the devices of sensationalistic Egyptian novels which seem more modern than ancient, more Hollywood than authentic, Along the Nile is a must-read for anyone who has ever been fascinated by ancient Egypt. The author’s three prolonged stays in Egypt resulted in a life-changing, transformative experience, leading to further extensive investigation, knowledge, and a personal relation with the goddesses Hathor and Sekhmet. The narrative reflects her intimate exploration of Egypt’s archaeological sites, especially the religious center at Dendera, and her study of, and participation in, Egyptian religious rites and traditions. Along the Nile is far and away the best novel about Ancient Egypt I have ever read.—Colin Wilson, author of From Atlantis to the Sphinx and The Outsider Historical Fiction Middle East Ancient Egypt Royalty
