About the book…
Babylonia – the Assyrian city of the Gods – is home to the strong and ambitious.
Into its streets steps an orphan, Semiramis, new wife to a broken warrior. There she meets King Ninus – who soon wants her for himself.
Semiramis will bow to no man. For who will stand in her way? A husband? A lover?
For in this world, kings fall while queens rise.
