Fiction
Based on the true story of Cleopatra's daughter¦ After years of abuse as the emperor's captive in Rome,
Cleopatra Selene has found a safe harbor. No longer the
pitiful orphaned daughter of the despised Egyptian Whore,
the twenty year old is now the most powerful queen in the
empire, ruling over the kingdom of Mauretania an exotic
land of enchanting possibility where she intends to revive
her dynasty. With her husband, King Juba II and the magic of Isis that is
her birthright, Selene brings prosperity and peace to a
kingdom thirsty for both. But when Augustus Caesar jealously
demands that Selene's children be given over to him to be
fostered in Rome, she's drawn back into the web of
imperial plots and intrigues that she vowed to leave behind. Determined and resourceful, Selene must shield her loved
ones from the emperor's wrath, all while vying with
ruthless rivals like King Herod. Can she find a way to
overcome the threat to her marriage, her kingdom, her
family, and her faith? Or will she be the last of her line?
