Another look at the Cleopatra / Antony / Julius Caesar
triangle and its resulting off-spring
Heiress of one empire and
prisoner of another, it is up to
the daughter of Cleopatra to
save her brothers and reclaim
what is rightfully hers... To Isis worshippers, Princess Selene and her twin
brother Helios embody the divine celestial pair who
will bring about a Golden Age. But when Selene’s
parents are vanquished by Rome, her auspicious
birth becomes a curse. Trapped in an empire that
reviles her heritage and suspects her faith, the young
messianic princess struggles for survival in a Roman
court of intrigue. She can’t hide the hieroglyphics
that carve themselves into her hands, nor can she
stop the emperor from using her powers for his
own ends. But faced with a new and ruthless Caesar
who is obsessed with having a Cleopatra of his very
own, Selene is determined to resurrect her mother’s
dreams. Can she succeed where her mother failed?
And what will it cost her in a political game where
the only rule is win—or die?
