Exodus Retold: The Great Prince of the South (Exodus Retold, #1) (ePub)

Lana Prada has a Ph.D degree and had worked for several years as a post-doctoral fellow at the University of Toronto.
Ancient History had been a passion since childhood, so writing a historical novel in her spare time about Ancient Egypt seemed a good idea. King Ahmose with his vast military campaign was not the central figure at first; she wanted to focus on his wife, Nefertari. As charismatic as the female character was, Lana soon discovered that military tactics, training and combat was her real interest and so the focus of the book became the account of Ahmose's brilliant feats as a military commander. As she did further research into the history of Ahmose's foes, she realized that the story of their defeat by the Egyptians was in fact a more complete version, or backstory, of the Bible's Book of Exodus. Historians have been saying the same thing for decades, but the general public has remained unaware of this dramatic story. As she continued her research, the facts were so overwhelming, Lana decided to rewrite her story and redevelop the plot again to reflect what she had learned.
She currently lives in Toronto with her little daughter Theia, planning to resume a career in scientific research after her maternity leave, while writing in her spare time.
