Sekhmet’s Light

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

In H.L. Reasby‘s Sekhmet’s Light, the ancient and the modern collide. A gifted archeologist literally falls into a world where ancient gods and goddesses plot and their mortal servants move around like pieces on a chess board. It is a world where a seemingly ordinary woman can be touched by a goddess and become the hero she never imagined she could be.

 

Book 1: Akhet

 

It is a season of waning and little is certain. Akhet, The Inundation. The world is changing, Gods of old stir, and their agents work behind the scenes to fulfill their masters’ commands. Who will have the courage to stand for The Light when darkness rises to swallow the world?

Doctor Nicole Salem is a beautiful and brilliant Egyptologist who is working on a dig outside Luxor, Egypt when she is confronted by her own destiny. She is plunged into a world of divided loyalties, intrigue, and treachery that will destroy her and everything she knows if she isn’t strong enough. Nicole must learn how to survive in a war between elder powers that claim her life and soul as their own, and earn the title of Sekhmet’s Light.

Available on Amazon, Createspace, and Barnes & Noble.

 

Book 2: Peret

 

The waters of the inundation have receded, leaving the Earth fertile for the seeds of war. The winter growing season will nurture a discordant crop and lead into a bitter harvest.

When Dr. Nicole Salem accepted her fate as NuruSekhmet, the living embodiment of the Egyptian goddess of war, she didn’t realize she’d be bringing the ancient struggle all the way to Chicago. With the emergence of a deadly new enemy at home, Nicole finds out just how much more she has to lose. Nicole will have to rely on her faith, training, and new allies in the face of fear and betrayal. Open conflict is inevitable and only NuruSekhmet can stand between the forces of Apep and the rest of the world.

Under pressure from the authorities, the forces of Apep, strife in the temple, and her old life in Chicago, Nicole will find out if she has what it takes to survive Peret.

Available on Amazon, Createspace, and Barnes & Noble.


Book 3: Shomu


The cycle of the year draws to a close. Shomu, the Harvest, is a time of festivals and celebration, but for NuruSekhmet, it is a time for vengeance.

Reeling from an onslaught of revelations and betrayal, Nicole Salem and her friends must marshal their courage to avenge their losses. Pursuing Apep’s dark servant from the high rises of Chicago, to the forests of South America, Nicole and each of her friends must dig deep and tap unplumbed reserves of strength.

To keep the darkness from continuing to rise, they must be willing to risk everything and Nicole could end up sacrificing far more than anyone ever expected.

Available on Amazon, Createspace, and Barnes & Noble.
