"Readers will be captivated. Fans of Gillian Bradshaw's classic The Beacon at Alexandria may especially enjoy Selene and find a promising new historical novelist who shares the same gift for wonderfully researched, vividly evoked, good old-fashioned storytelling."-Historical Novel Society
"The characters are well-drawn, the plot propels us forward, and the writing carries us easily throughout the story. Even the antagonist comes across as a fully fleshed out person. The depiction of all the historical figures we see through Selene's eyes and the level of authenticity is remarkable."-Historical Novel Review
"Selene of Alexandria is pure fiction magic...I couldn't put this book down... [It] made me laugh and cry, hope and despair."-Story Circle Book Reviews
"This book is outstanding, not just for a first novel, but for any novel. Once you've read it, I'm sure you'll join me in waiting impatiently to read Justice's next project!"-Lacuna: Journal of Historical Fiction
"Selene of Alexandria does what historical fiction does best-weave historical fact, real-life historical figures, and attention to detail with page-turning, plot-driven fiction."-The Copperfield Review
"The author has weaved a brilliant tale that brings to life this fascinating era, complete with never-to-be-forgotten characters, unrequited love, and the desire of one woman to overcome adversity. It is a story that picks up momentum with each page until it reaches a very explosive ending. Highly recommended."-History and Women
"I am enthralled with the work of this author... [She writes] with beauty, brilliance, and brutal honesty. Run to the bookstore and buy this for yourself."-BookPleasures.com
