The Amazon and the Warrior by Judith Hand
For eight years, the besieged city of Troy has withstood the relentless might of the Achean invaders. Now the dread Achilles, mightiest of the Greek warriors, casts his sights on Themiskyra, fabled home of the Amazons. But one woman stands between him and his ruthless ambition to conquer her homeland. Penthesilea, Warrior Queen of the Amazons, watched her mother die upon Achilles' sword. A fiery, red - haired tigress of tremendous passion and courage, Pentha vows to take revenge on the legendary Greek champion, even if it means leading an army in defence of imperilled Troy. Her lover, Damonides, does not share her eagerness for battle. Once a formidable warrior in his own right, he long ago put away the sword. Now he yearns only to live in peace with the beautiful and ardent Amazon Queen. But can he stand idly by while the woman he loves risks everything for the sake of her people?| SKU | Unavailable |
