Synopsis: In a gritty medieval world where the ruling houses are based on the constellations, betrayal, intrigue, and a king's murder force the royal sisters of the Bear House on the run!

    Moody Aster and her spoiled sister Ursula are the daughters of Jasper Lourdes, Major of Bears and lord of all the realm. Rivals, both girls dream of becoming the Bear queen someday, although neither really deserve to, having no particular talent in... well, anything.

     But when their Uncle Bram murders their father in a bid for the crown, the girls are forced onto the run, along with lowly Dev the Bearkeeper and the Lourdes's half-grown grizzly Alcor, symbol of their house. As a bitter struggle for the throne consumes the kingdom in civil war, the sisters must rely on Dev, the bear cub, and each other to survive--and find wells of courage, cunning, and skill they never knew they had.

The Silenced Muse: Emily Hale, T. S. Eliot, and the Role of a Lifetime  Author: Sara Fitzgerald  Genre: Nonfiction, History, Biography  Publisher: Rowman & Littlefield Book Release Date: 2024 Pages: 336 Source: Netgalley/Publisher in exchange for an honest review.

Hatchepsut by Joyce Tyldesley: A Book Review

Hatchepsut: The Female Pharaoh Author: Joyce Tyldesley Genre: Nonfiction, Biography, History Publisher: Viking Release Date: 1996 Pages: 304 Source: My State Public Library Synopsis:  Queen --or, as she would prefer to be remembered King--Hatchepsut was a remarkable woman. Born the eldest daughter of King Tuthmosis I, married to her half-brother Tuthmosis II, and guardian of her young stepson-nephew Tuthmosis III, Hatchepsut the Female Pharaoh, brilliantly defied tradition and established herself on the divine throne of the pharaohs to become the female embodiment of a man, dressing in male clothing and even sporting the pharaoh's traditional false beard. Her reign was a carefully balanced period of internal peace, foreign exploration, and monumental building, and Egypt prospered under her rule. After her death, however, a serious attempt was made to obliterate Hatchepsut's memory from the history of Egypt. Her monuments were either destroyed or usurped, her portraits we...
