Another series by the same author is about Helen of Troy and the Greeks. Those are good, too but I liked the Egypt ones better. I hope you enjoy reading Sphinx's Princess. I'm always adding new books to my blog, so be sure to check again for more!Elfhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14384723142267852828noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7102067376746188002.post-37901724393073469002011-06-16T14:21:41.942-04:002011-06-16T14:21:41.942-04:00Oh, of couse!

I hadn't realized I had it connected where people could find it yet. :) Thanks for letting me know, and I'm so glad that you like the looks of it! :) And that you loved Veiled Rose . . . I have a soft spot in my heart for that story. And I can hardly wait myself until Moonblood releases!<br /><br />Just so you know, I picked up Sphinx's Princess at the library today after reading about it on your blog. Thanks for posting all those great reading suggestions! I love YA fantasy. :)Anne Elisabeth Stenglhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09462605949792523331noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7102067376746188002.post-41201978177280367082011-06-16T11:39:50.861-04:002011-06-16T11:39:50.861-04:00I just finished Veiled Rose yesterday.

I...I'm so glad you're enjoying Veiled Rose! I'm excited about Moonblood too . . . it's probably my favorite of the three. I hadn't realized the cover was already up online! So excited to see that. Sadly, it won't be coming out any earlier than April 2012. :( But be sure to tell your friends so they can read Veiled Rose before Moonblood comes out! Blessings. :)Anne Elisabeth Stenglhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09462605949792523331noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7102067376746188002.post-82387860992670603452011-06-15T14:17:04.562-04:002011-06-15T14:17:04.562-04:00Veiled Rose is amazing!

In keeping with the Fairy Tale feel, I wanted the nations of the world to feel relatively familiar . . . and I had just traveled to Okinawa before writing Veiled Rose, so there was a strong influence from that trip as well! By the time of the actual release, there were influences from many different Asian cultures, both Far Eatern and more Middle Eastern. Noorhitam is a vast empire, and Lunthea Maly an equally vast city . . . lots of culture to be had! :) It was fun to write about.Anne Elisabeth Stenglhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09462605949792523331noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7102067376746188002.post-91359180905419433112011-06-14T17:26:35.448-04:002011-06-14T17:26:35.448-04:00Christa here!
I'd forgotten about Lunthea Maly...Christa here!<br />I'd forgotten about Lunthea Maly. Thanks for reminding me.<br />Is the city supposed to be drawn off some Asian country? I mean, "City of Fragrant Flowers" sounds pretty Chinese, and it's in the east.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
