Sisters. Mothers. Lovers. Warriors.
In ancient Themiscyra, Hippolyte rules as Queen of the Amazons. Feared throughout Greece, their skill on the battlefield is unrivalled. But when a ship lands on their shores, it brings something more dangerous than the threat of war. It brings a future Hippolyte could never have imagined.
Swept away to Athens, Hippolyte discovers a love that challenges even the bonds of sisterhood and the life she has always known. But can she leave her warrior past behind and forge a new future?
With her sister gone, Penthesilea has no choice but to rise as the new Amazon Queen. Lacking Hippolyte’s compassion and restraint, she rules with an impulsiveness and ferocity that strike terror throughout the Aegean.
But when Hippolyte’s world begins to crumble, Penthesilea must decide just how far she is willing to go to defend their honour, their family, and the Amazon way of life.
If you are a fan of epic tales, powerful female characters and mythology retellings, you are going to love Hannah Lynn’s Queens of Themiscyra.
Perfect for readers of Madeleine Miller and Claire Heywood looking for an original mythology reimagining, this epic story is a rich, thrilling odyssey of war and peace, love and betrayal, and, most of all, sisterhood.
