Description

A king determined to be remembered for all time… A jealous goddess who desires his throne.

King Gilgamesh rules the world’s preeminent city, the jewel of creation, Uruk.

But that is not enough. His desire for legacy consumes him and drives his ceaseless ambition—until the gods step in.

Their solution? Enkidu—a man with no past.

Enkidu captivates and frustrates Gilgamesh, drawing the king’s attention from eternity. He’s the perfect solution—for everyone except the goddess Inanna.

She has her own plans in place for Gilgamesh’s future until Enkidu’s arrival sabotages them.

No one spurns a goddess and gets away with it. Not even the king.

Especially not the king.

A reimagining of the world’s oldest written story, this MM fantasy reminiscent of Beauty and the Beast is filled with romance, twists and turns, and gripping characters.
