Isis of Egypt: Goddess of Thrones - by Malayna Evans

Book Synopsis

One determined goddess. Two beloved gods. Three coveted thrones.

Ancient Egypt's most formidable goddess will stop at nothing to save her true love from the wrath of a vengeful god in this romantic retelling by the author of Neferura, perfect for readers who loved Lilith.

Isis, goddess of thrones and magic, steals the crown of Egypt and hands the power to her husband, Osiris. Together, Isis and Osiris live an idyllic life, ruling justly until the god of chaos, set on revenge for a crime Isis knows nothing about, traps Osiris in a box--a box that quickly vanishes.

Driven by rage and desperation, Isis spends decades disguised as a human woman, isolated from home and family as she searches for her lost love. When she finally uncovers the box, what she finds will change her life--and the fate of gods and mortals--forever. Unless Isis can right the wrongs of a betrayal she didn't commit and deliver Egypt into the hands of a worthy leader, Egypt will fall to chaos.

Isis of Egypt: Goddess of Thrones is a feminist retelling about the woman behind one of the ancient world's most widespread and enduring cults, a goddess whose message of empathy and resilience resonates still today.
