:’) I never saw those, but used to read historical novels (romances, but I never owned up to it) such as Mary Stewart’s faux-historical Merlin novels, an authoress I forget who wrote “Fortune Made His Sword”, another authoress who penned a series, the first of which was “Eagle of the Ninth”, and now that I no longer read fiction, I resort to audiobooks (Clive Cussler, whose stuff is more like the “Doc Savage” and similar adventure pulp I used to snake from my dad’s bedside pile), and of course to things like HBO’s “Rome”. :’)

Joyce Verrette is the author. There was a series of three about Amenemhet, and one about a Rameses. Some research had been done ;-).

I like Clive Cussler, whom I discovered on a FReeper recommendation, once we sorted out that his protagonist wasn’t Dirk Benedict. I read a lot of his “original” books, before he contracted out, and I still enjoy the “Oregon” series.
