Young Rhiannon in the Temple of Isis (Wings in the Night Book 24)

I am Rhiannon.
This is my origin story.

My original name was Rhianikki, firstborn of Pharaoh. My bare feet sank into the sands of Egypt when the pyramids were new. My mother was a divine queen who died giving birth to me and they say the walls of the palace trembled when they took me, wailing, from her cold arms.

I was special and not just by virtue of my inherent divinity.

About the Book

I am Rhiannon.
This is my origin story.

My original name was Rhianikki, firstborn of Pharaoh. My bare feet sank into the sands of Egypt when the pyramids were new. My mother was a divine queen who died giving birth to me and they say the walls of the palace trembled when they took me, wailing, from her cold arms.

I was special and not just by virtue of my inherent divinity.

But rather than honor my gifts, my father feared them. And when I was five years old, he and his new queen sent me far away from their newborn twin sons, to live at the Temple of Isis, where I learned and grew and became the woman I still am, more than three thousand years later.

That temple is where I was raised, by holy women who taught me the secrets of the gods and of the goddesses and all the ways of magic.

There I met Luca, a father figure like my own had never been, who could only visit me by night and who said we were related in a way I would not understand until I was older.

During those years, I rescued stolen children; I answered women’s prayers; I helped artists find their calling; I caused a poor, small village to thrive, and I saw the face of my beloved in the glass-like crystal ball of a prophet.

I communed with Isis nightly and became convinced she lived within me, that my soul was divine.

That assumption has never left me.

Maggie Shayne

New York Times and USA Today bestselling novelist Maggie Shayne has published 74 novels and novellas for five major publishers. She also spent a year writing for American daytime TV dramas The Guiding Light and As the World Turns and was offered the position of co-head writer of the former; a million-dollar offer she tearfully turned down. It was scary, turning down an offer that big. But her heart was in her books, and she’d found it impossible to do both.

Now, she is embarking on an exciting new leg of her publishing journey with dream-publisher, Oliver Heber Books and she’s having more fun than ever.

Maggie has three small-town contemporary series, The Texas Brand (9 books,) The Oklahoma Brands (6 books), and The McIntyre Men (6 books)

She has five paranormal romance series, including the groundbreaking 24-book Wings in the Night (Vampires,) The Immortals (4 books, Witches,) By Magic (4 books, Fay), The Portal (3 books, Witches) and now Wings in the Night: Fiona Files (1 book so far, Lycan and other.)

She is also the author of several romantic suspense and thriller series, including The Brown and de Luca Novels (8 books,) The Shattered Sisters (3 books) and Deep, Dark Secrets (6 books)

There are two stand-alone novels, Miranda’s Viking and Stargazer, and somewhere in the neighborhood of 13 novellas.

Maggie lives in a century-and-a-half old farmhouse in the rural hills of Cortland County NY with her husband Lance, who builds waterfalls for a living, and their dogs. There are always, always dogs.
