Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book tells the exciting fictional story of Thrytho, a powerful and ambitious woman who uses her intelligence to gain a place of prominence within the court of King O'a of Mercia during the 8th century. The story is set against a backdrop of political turmoil, religious upheaval, personal ambition, love, and betrayal, and explores how the legendary characters of the era would have lived and interacted in the face of such disruption. At the heart of the story is the complex relationship between Thrytho and the King, a relationship which oscillates between passion and fear, adoration and suspicion. The book asks big questions about the nature of power, love, and the struggles of women within patriarchal societies, and will appeal to anyone interested in historical fiction or the role of women in history.
