The Prophetic Mayan Queen: K’inuuw Mat of Palenque by Leonide Martin  

About The Prophetic Mayan Queen: K’inuuw Mat of Palenque by Leonide Martin

She was born to serve the Goddess Ix Chel. But K’inuuw Mat is destined to continue the Palenque (Lakam Ha) dynasty by marriage to Tiwol, fourth son of famous ruler Pakal. Trained in prophetic arts, she uses scrying to foresee the face of the man with whom she will bear the dynastic heir—but it is not her husband’s image. She is shocked upon arriving at Palenque to recognize that face as her husband’s older brother, Kan Bahlam. They are immediately attracted, sharing deep interest in astronomy. Though she resists, the magnetic force of their attraction propels them into forbidden embraces, until Kan Bahlam designs a bold plan that would solve his inability to produce a son—if he can gain his brother’s cooperation.

Set in the splendor of Lakam Ha’s artistic and scientific zenith, royal family conflicts and ambitions play out in a tapestry of brilliant Mayan accomplishments in calendars, astronomy, architecture, arts, and secret language codes that will astound people centuries later. As K’inuuw Mat contends with explosive emotions, she must answer the Goddess’ mandate to preserve Mayan culture for future generations. Her passion with Kan Bahlam leads to a pale daughter and bold son who carry this out as their civilization begins the decline and eventual collapse her prophetic vision foresees.

One great cycle rolls into the next . . .

Contemporary Mexican archeologist Francesca and her partner Charlie, a British linguist, venture into Chiapas jungles to a remote Maya village, seeking to unravel her grandmother’s secrets. The hostile village shaman holds the key, but refuses to share with outsiders the scandal that leads to foreign blood and ancient Palenque lineages. Only by re-claiming her own shamanic heritage can Francesca learn the truth of who she is, and bring her dynasty into the present.

Author Bio:
Leonide (Lennie) Martin: Award winning author, retired California State University professor, former Family Nurse Practitioner, Research Member Maya Exploration Center.

Dr. Martin’s books set in ancient Maya civilization tell the stories of actual historical Mayan queens, also using fictional characters. Studying Mayan culture and history from both scientific and indigenous viewpoints, she lived five years in Mérida, Yucatán, Mexico. She apprenticed with Maya Elder Hunbatz Men to become a Solar Initiate and Maya Fire Women in the Itzá Maya tradition. Other Mayan teachers include Guatemalan Priestess-Daykeeper Aum Rak Sapper and elder Tata Pedro. The ancient Mayas had the most highly advanced civilization in the Western hemisphere. Their wisdom, spirituality, scientific, and cultural accomplishments are highlighted in these compelling historical novels.

Martin’s interest in ancient Mayan women led to writing the Mayan Queens’ series called The Mists of Palenque. This 4-book series–each book stands alone–tells the stories of powerful women who shaped the destinies of their people. These remarkable Mayan women are unknown to most readers. Using extensive research and field study, Martin depicts ancient Palenque authentically and makes these amazing Mayan Queens accessible to a wide readership.

Presently Dr. Martin lives with her husband David Gortner and two white cats in Oregon’s Willamette Valley wine country, where she enjoys reading, gardening, nature walks, classical music, and wine tasting.

Dark Gifts by Imani L. Hawkins  

About Dark Gifts by Imani L. Hawkins

Twenty years have passed since the world discovered the existence of Mysts, mystical beings, when a young witch publicly executed a United States Senator on live television. Fear gripped the nation as Mysts went public with their abilities in solidarity with the young witch.

Naomi has been cast out, shunned by the very people she’d sacrificed everything for. Now in the hands of FOP, the Fraternity of Purifiers, Naomi is forced to face what she’s done and come to terms with the irreparable damage she’s caused for Toni, the daughter of the man she’d killed.

When she’s saved by a group of Mysts, Naomi finds herself called upon to lead a militant group of resistant Mysts to take down FOP and fight Proposition 49. A bill that, once passed, would force all Mysts to register or face persecution. And she will stop at nothing to protect her people or die trying. The lives and freedoms of every Myst depends on it.

Unscrambled Eggs  

About Unscrambled Eggs

With Nadia’s poems I find myself in the darkest of my longing questions, come to light, as she sheds to me hopeful answers. Her poems are short and soft, yet incredibly effective, bringing on a sense of awe. It was difficult to find a favorite poem, for much of this work sparkles. Wherever one turns, words fly out and blind the reader. She is truly a gifted writer, brilliant in both mind and spirit. I would recommend Unscrambled Eggs to be read by anyone at any age of life.
