Short Version:
I turn wickedly strong tea into historical fantasy fiction in which the gods, heroes, and myths of Ancient Greece come to life as you've never seen them before. When I'm not creating worlds or killing off characters, I wrangle honeybees to add a little adventure into my non-writing life.
Long Version:
Tammie Painter grew up in the creative world of Portland, Oregon, and she continues to call the City of Roses home. Although she spent years working as a chemist in a behavioral neuroscience research lab, she could never quite tame her passion for writing.
Tammie has a knack for delving into and bringing life to history and mythology in her novels. Her fascination for myths, history, and how they interweave inspired the Osteria Chronicles series.
The current titles in the six-book series include
*The Trials of Hercules
*The Voyage
*The Maze
*The Bonds of Osteria (coming soon)
When she isn't (but probably should be) writing, Tammie can be found digging in her garden, planning her next travel adventure, creating art, or persuading her hive of backyard bees to share some of their honey with her.

The Circus of Unusual Creatures
|
It's not every day you meet an amateur sleuth… with fangs.
If you like fantastical mysteries that mix in laughs with murderous mayhem and mythical beasts, you'll love this first book in the Circus of Unusual Creatures series!
What readers are saying...
"Very funny and laughs out loud will be heard when reading it…this was so good l read it in one sitting couldn't put it down!" "What a truly FUN, lighthearted read, full of fantastical and lovable characters!" "What a fun circus-themed murder mystery! …I really think [Tammie] outdid herself with this book." "I loved the humour… I loved the way the story was written. The characters are very believable, and the way the mystery unravels is very well crafted…"
Like any traveling circus, Zin's has hair-raising acts and fried food on sticks. But it's also got an aura-spotting centaur, a chain-smoking unicorn, and an omelet-addicted dragon. Oh, and a body in the center ring.
Duncan -- aka "Brutus Fangwrath, Deadliest Dragon in the West" -- wakes one morning to find his best friend isn't just sleeping off a hangover. He's been murdered.
Suspicion for the crime quickly turns to the circus's new hire, Cordelia Quinn. After all, she's got motive, she's got means, and she's got loads of circumstantial evidence stacked against her.
When it looks like no one else is going to step in to help Cordelia, it's up to Duncan to ponder the puzzling clues, prove Cordelia's innocence, and pry open a troubling secret along the way.
As soon as he's done with his omelet, that is.
Set in a 1930s that's just a tad different than what you're used to, Hoard it all Before is the start of a delightfully humorous mystery series with plenty of tantalizing twists, a troupe of quirky characters, and death-defying feats both in and beyond the big top.
Hoard It All Before is the first in the Circus of Unusual Creatures mysteries. Other titles include…
Tipping the Scales Fangs A Million Beast or Famine (which is another great place to start the series)Note: While this cozy mystery is mostly clean, it does have a lusty, chain-smoking unicorn who makes more than a few naughty innuendos, a dragon that drinks heavily, a tiny bit of swearing, and (obviously) there's a murder along the way.
