The Queen of Kings

MYSTERY AND SEDUCTION, WITCHES AND WARRIORS, HISTORY AND MYTHOLOGY COMBINE TO TELL THE LEGEND OF ANTIQUITY'S MOST FAMOUS QUEEN. Alexandria is taken by Roman troops. General Mark Antony dies in the arms of his beloved Cleopatra. To save her kingdom and bring her great love back from the land of the dead, Cleopatra makes a pact with Sekhmet, the goddess of death and destruction. But fate conspires against the queen, and in a stroke of magic, she transforms into an immortal and dark creature, capable of assuming countless forms and with an insatiable hunger for human blood. Fighting to preserve what little remains of her humanity, Cleopatra keeps alive her desire to take revenge on Octavian, the Roman general responsible for Mark Antony's death. And to do so, she must face the most dangerous and terrifying creatures. “Magical and mysterious. A spectacular work of imagination that treads a dark territory somewhere between Anne Rice and Robert Graves.” Neil Gaiman
