I’d like to thank my niece, Selena Reames, for the beautiful map at the front. It’s not every writer with her own in-house artist who puts up with her geographical pickiness. More about Selena and her art can be found at selenareames.blogspot.com.
A full list of acknowledgments appears at the end of Book II: Rise.
Jeanne Reames received her PhD from the Pennsylvania State University in 1998, where she studied Macedonian history under Eugene N. Borza. In 2000, she was hired by the University of Nebraska, Omaha, and is now tenured faculty in the History Department, director of the Ancient Mediterranean Studies Program, and has served as History Graduate Program Chair.
In addition to short fiction, she’s published several academic articles and book chapters about Alexander and his court, as well as co-edited Macedonian Legacies with Tim Howe. Currently, she’s working on a biography of Hephaistion and pursuing research in Macedonian religion. She’s maintained an educational website about Hephaistion for almost two decades: jeannereames.net/Hephaistion/index.html.
She will probably continue Alexander and Hephaistion’s story on into their Asian adventures sometime in the future, but is presently at work on a science-fiction series involving Dionysos and Ariadne.
She’s visited Greece several times, driving all over Macedonia, Epiros, and even into Bulgaria (ancient Thrace). Although she enjoys the Greek Islands (especially Naxos), her heart belongs to the mountains of the north.
On her last trip, she made a number of vlogs showing the land and some important sites mentioned in the novel. You can take a virtual tour on her website, or uncover other goodies and background information about Alexander and his homeland.
