About the Book

Everyone has secrets. The goddess Athena has more than most!

Athena, beloved daughter of Zeus. Worshiped by millions as the goddess of Wisdom and War. What problems could she possibly have? Well...
-Her mother was killed by Zeus to prevent an ancient prophesy from coming true; one that might be about Athena herself.
-Athena is smart, gutsy and rebellious in an age that demands its females be gentle and submissive.
-She eludes an arranged marriage only to find herself condemned to a lifetime of enforced virginity.

So what is a goddess with a formidable intellect and a backbone of steel to do?
She seizes control of her destiny, using her cunning to outwit the other gods and wins dominion over the greatest city in Greece. And when love finally strikes, Athena chooses to follow her heart without a backward glance.

But the wheel continues to turn, and the golden age of ancient Greece is eventually threatened by a new military power growing in the west. When the Roman legions arrive, greedy for Greece's wealth and offering to adopt the Greek gods as their own, Athena and her fellow gods have a diabolical choice to make: Do they stand by the Greek people, or betray them to safeguard their own interests?

In defiance of her father's wishes, Athena rebels one last time and sets forth to change the course of human history itself.

Author Daphne Ignatius takes us behind the mythology and reveals a colorful version of one of the most powerful goddesses of the ancient world; one that is definitely not found in the textbooks!
