Shawanadese was the name bestowed on her when she was born into the prehistoric Anasazi tribe. Her fate seemed much like that of any other young girl until her magical powers began to erupt at the dawning of womanhood. It was then that a sacred name--Coyote Woman--was granted to her, a name that would come to identify her as a high priestess and draw the lustful and the faithful to her side. No one could have imagined the mystical charms of the high priestess, and nobody could have expected the force of attraction that would draw many men into her life. Shawanadese ignited a passion within the Mayan prince, the fiery rebel and the young warrior, and she engages in an epic struggle to defeat the sinister ways of man while maintaining her authority as the high priestess in the canyon of Chaco.

During the last twenty years, Judith Redman Robbins has traveled extensively, both in the U.S. and abroad. In 1986, an Indian Holy Man advised her to go to Chaco Canyon in northwestern New Mexico. When she visited, she had a feeling of deja vu, which resulted in the inspiration to write her first three novels in that location. She spent the new two summers backpacking into remote places to locate Anasazi ruins, interviewing archaeologists, and doing on site archaeological digging. She also spent time with the Hopi and Navaho Indians, taking part in some of their ceremonials. COYOTE WOMAN, her first novel was closely followed by her second, SUN PRIESTESS, both taking place from 1054 to 1064 A.D. In December 2000, her third novel, MOON FIRE, was released. Judith is now working on her fourth novel which takes place in Crystal River, Fla. in the year 1000 A.D.
