Sandy Esene

Sandy Esene is a self-professed ancient cultures geek. Traveling to ancient ruin sites around the world is one of her great passions. Over the years, she has traveled to over twenty countries including Greece, Malta, Jordan, Turkey, Belize, Peru, Chile, Argentina, Antarctica, Thailand, Japan, and of course Egypt. Six times! The last two visits to Egypt were in spring of 2024 and 2025.

Aside from writing and traveling Sandy enjoys making jewelry, going to museums, and taking long walks in Seattle parks with her husband and their two miniature schnauzers Ozy and Mandias. She also a registrar for a civic art collection.

The fantasy/adventure novels of the KHNM series are Indiana Jones style adventures with ancient Egyptian myth and magic woven throughout. Sandy endeavors to represent the ancient Egyptian history, pantheon of gods and their myths as accurately as possible. She loves it when she finds intersections with the fictional narratives she creates and ancient history.

"I love the feeling when I am writing, and I get lost in the magic of creation. I have always been an avid reader, but those moments when I connect deeply with my story just take my breath away."--Sandy Esene
