| Publisher Description:
Aphrodite's Sacred Virgins Set in 40-50 AD, Aphrodite's Sacred Virgins is a formidable novel and all the more poignant given it is based on historical events. It is vividly written with a spellbinding storyline surrounding the demise of an ancient culture of idolatry and the rise of a Messiah professed to be the Son of God and the Anointed One. It portrays the introduction of Christianity by St. Paul and St. Barnabas on the island of Cyprus, to convert Jews and Hellenes into the new faith. It is an inspiring novel that illustrates slavery, debauchery and rivalry between religious cults that pose a threat to Aphrodite Urania's worship in fertility rites at her Sanctuary at Nikokleia. The novel transports the reader into a bygone era of intrigue and reveals an exciting adventure filled with historical revelations of times past.
