Klappentext

A 3-in-1 edition of the classic romance fantasy series where a modern girl is whisked to ancient times and must navigate a scheming court and warring factions while trying to find her way home.

Yuri, a modern teenager, is transported to ancient Anatolia as part of a scheme by the evil Nakia, queen of the Hittites. Only the intervention of Nakia’s stepson, Prince Kail, saves Yuri from the queen’s bloodthirsty intentions. As an unintended consequence of the prince’s actions, the people of Anatolia embrace Yuri as the incarnation of the great war goddess Ishtar.

In Egypt, Yuri’s rebel forces attack and take Thebes, but Queen Nefertiti refuses to release Ramses, who remains under threat of execution. Yuri makes a daring attempt to rescue the general herself and ends up in a direct confrontation with Nefertiti.
