Legend of the Amazons

In my years reading Greek Mythology, one story that fascinated me the most was the legendary all female tribe of warriors – the Amazons. They made appearances here and there in various myths, but were always vicious enemies the hero was meant to conquer. Every time I read about them, I was left hungry for more.

If there’s a book that you want to read, but it hasn’t been written yet, then you must write it.

– Toni Morrison

Legend of the Amazons is a tribute to the forgotten women of myth demonized for their strength and independence. Readers can expect to find a gritty portrayal of the realities of life in Ancient Greece as told by the first queen of the Amazons, Otrera.
