Fantastic tales of demons and the Evil Eye, magical
incantations, and powerful attractions abound in
Enchantress, a novel that weaves together Talmudic lore,
ancient Jewish magic, and a timeless love story set in
fourth-century Babylonia.
One of the most powerful practitioner of these mysterious
arts is Rav Hisda’s daughter, whose innate awareness allows
her to possess the skills men lack. With her husband,
Rava--whose arcane knowledge of the secret Torah enables him
to create a “man” out of earth and to resurrect another
rabbi from death--the two brave an evil sorceress, Ashmedai
the Demon King, and even the Angel of Death in their quest
to safeguard their people, even while putting their romance
at risk. The author of the acclaimed Rashi’s Daughters series and the
award-winning Rav Hisda’s Daughter: Apprentice has conjured
literary magic in the land where “abracadabra” originated.
Based on five years of research and populated with
characters from the Talmud, Enchantress brings a pivotal era
of Jewish and Christian history to life from the perspective
of a courageous and passionate woman.
