The Women of Artemis

From an award-winning author comes an adventurous, bold story about history’s most ferocious women- this is the rise of the Amazons.

Mothers. Daughters. Warriors. Women.

This is the never-before-told story of history’s most ferocious heroines- this is the rise of the Amazons.

When she first married at fourteen, Otrera imagined a relationship full of love. A partnership. Years later, living in destitution with her abusive husband, she knows that no such thing exists with a man. It is simply a woman’s lot in life to accept the treatment of her husband.

Until it’s not.

Rallying the women around her, Otrera fights back, taking no prisoners. Because it’s clear to her- when men are in power, freedom isn’t granted. It’s bought with blood. It’s a price she is more than willing to pay, if it means building a new life with other women far from the reaches of their abusers.

But a community of women – an army of women – is bound to make enemies of gods and men alike.

This is the story of Otrera and the first Amazons.

From award-winning and critically acclaimed author Hannah Lynn comes a gripping tale about women who fight back, perfect for fans of Madeleine Miller and Elodie Harper.
