biography

Regine Leisner was born in Betzenberg / Schwend ( Upper Palatinate ). After graduating from high school (1973), she first studied German and history, but soon dropped out and trained as an industrial clerk. In total, she worked for a large company in the areas of human resources, organization and software development for 14 years. At the same time, she dealt intensively with Buddhism and Eastern wisdom and was co-founder of a study and meditation center in the mid-1980s, where, in addition to administrative and journalistic tasks, she was able to gain experience in teaching, accompanying and advising numerous people for years. It later became her main job. Towards the end of the 1990s, however, she left organized Buddhism and turned increasingly to the pre-Christian traditions of the West and psychology. She acquired various additional qualifications and worked as a psychological consultant until 2016 with a focus on communication training, coaching and conflict management. Her interest in the old European, shamanic roots of Western culture and the conditions in which patriarchal structures came about led her to write two historical novels; Her aim was to combine fiction with facts and bring Europe's past to life. Today she lives with her husband in Lower Franconia .

Books

After several non-fiction books (e.g. "An Krisen reifen", 2000), "Die Rabenfrau" was her first historical novel in 2007. It takes place 11,500 years ago in the Late Paleolithic in Lower Franconia and deals with the survival of a tribe on the Main that is threatened by climate change and volcanic eruptions at the end of the Ice Age. The follow-up volume "Unter dem Rabenmond" was published in October 2008. It takes place 4400 years ago, in the transition to the Bronze Age, and describes the clash of three completely different cultures in Central Europe: the Neolithic farmers who have lived for thousands of years, the warlike battle-ax people and the enigmatic bell-bell men.
