Praise for Daughter of the Gods
"A wonderfully intimate and dramatic evocation of ancient
Egypt, where one headstrong young woman dares to become pharaoh.
Stephanie Thornton vividly portrays the heat and the danger, the
passion and the heartbreak ...A touching love story combines with a
thrilling tale of death, courage and political intrigue to produce
a superbly researched and powerfully written novel. This is the
kind of book that grabs you by the throat and doesn't let go. A
remarkable story, remarkably told."--Kate Furnivall, author of
Shadows on the Nile and The Russian Concubine "An epic saga that
brings ancient Egypt to life with vivid imagery and lovely prose.
Stephanie Thornton is a rising star!"--Stephanie Dray, author of
Lily of the Nile "Hatshepsut crackles with fascinating
complexity."--Vicky Alvear Shecter, author of Cleopatra's Moon and
Curses and Smoke: A Novel of Pompeii "Stephanie Thornton's heroines
are bold, brave, and powerful--they make me want to stand up and
cheer." --Kate Quinn, author of Lady of the Eternal
City
