Like Jean Auel and Marion Zimmer Bradley, Mary Mackey takes us to a place where myth and reality meet. The year is 3643 B.C.E. The great matriarchal cities which have dominated the earth are about to disappear as hordes of nomads overrun the fertile valleys of Mesopotamia. Born into one of these tribes is Inanna, a woman who speaks the language of plants and whose touch can heal. Led by her powers to the City of the Dove, where love is sacred and sex is an act of worship, Inanna fulfills her destiny by becoming a great warrior queen.
This book has a strong female lead character that goes through many hardships. The story is heart wrenching at times, but has a great ending. By the end of the book, the reader will feel strengthened from the emotional journey Inanna has made in order to triumph over evil. This book has all the great elements - fantasy with a touch of romance, engaging fights, and hardships endured! A MUST read!
