This future she knows for certain—the great sun city will be her undoing.


Amidst a power struggle between Pharaoh and the priesthood of Amun, Queen Nefertiti helps the ill-prepared new Pharaoh, Amenhotep, enact his father's plan to regain power for the throne. But what seemed a difficult task only becomes more grueling when Amenhotep loses himself in his radical obsessions.


Standing alone to bear the burden of a failing country and stem the tide of a growing rebellion, Nefertiti must choose between her love for Pharaoh and her duty to Egypt in this dramatic retelling of a story forgotten by time.

Howdy!


As each book of The Lost Pharaoh Chronicles series is released, I had planned to add its accompanying Reader's Guide here, but I focused my time on writing the two collections for the series. Apologies for the delay. I'm working on the remainder while I write a new series.


These guides go beyond the story into the history behind it. They will take you on a journey through the past with pieces of my research behind each chapter; dig in and separate fact from fiction. There are chapter summaries, a timeline, a family tree, a map, and much more. They accompany a theme analysis and character analysis. Some even include an unedited chapter that didn’t quite make it into the story.

As a fellow history and story lover, I wanted my readers to be able to experience the past at the touch of a finger and a little bit of imagination.


Grab these novella-length reader's guide to take you to new depths of the Ancient Egyptian culture and see The Lost Pharaoh Chronicles from the inside out! 


If you want the paperback version, click here.


Happy Reading!

Lauren
