Heroic & Historical

Short tales inspired by history and legend from the award-winning author of 'Song Quest'.

This collection of short fiction featuring strong heroines takes you on a spiritual journey from the temples of Ancient Egypt to the present day. Along the way, you'll meet Queen Boudicca's daughters, the doomed prophetess Cassandra of Troy, and a contemporary Cleopatra still looking for romance. You'll also meet fictional characters, including a brave gladiator girl and a less-than-famous fallen angel, and discover what King Midas' wife really thought of his golden touch.

This book is the latest addition to the author's 'Ampersand Tales' series of short fiction suitable for readers aged 13+.
