Acolyte Of Truth is my new favourite story from Laura Greenwood for many reasons. I love the afterlife as a theme and following High Priestess Edrice through the Hall of Judgement and the rest of her challenges had me on the edge of my seat. The writing is vivid, immersive, and I could picture the Egyptian sceneries like I was really there. There's a certain gentleness to the story of Edrice and it's hard not to feel compelled by her journey to the afterlife. Between the wonderful descriptions and the multiple stern but just Gods she meets and befriends, this book has me a little misty-eyed and wishing it was all real. Can't recommend it enough! - Arizona Tape, USA Today Bestselling Author

Empress Of The Dark

Book #7
Nephthys

The goddess of mourning yearns for freedom.

For years, Nephthys has been living in the compound of a man that's never loved her. When a god from her past shows up, she's offered a chance to finally leave.

Despite being drawn to Heka and the life he offers her among the other gods, Nephthys finds herself refusing.

Until Seth pushes things too far and she realises she can't stand by and watch any longer.

But escaping is only half the challenge. Once she's back at Karnak, she has to persuade the other gods she can still be trusted.

Nobody does Egyptian mythology like Laura Greenwood and Empress Of The Dark is no exception. It's a wonderful and empowering story about Nephthys finding her courage to leave her husband and pick up her duty in the Hall Of Judgement. As always, the scenes and descriptions are vibrant and I can really picture what it's like underneath the hot sun and sandy deserts. The new relationship Greenwood paints for Nephthys is with someone who encourages and respects her and I was rooting for the characters all the way. I also think the end deserves a special mention because it was perfect and everything I wanted for Nephthys. A cathartic and inspiring read that has me waiting impatiently for the next one. -  Arizona Tape, USA Today Bestselling Author
