For 500 years, the once powerful Order of the Sibylline has kept the identity of its future prophetess hidden in the most famous painting in the world. Amid the chaos of post-World War II France, one woman discovers their ancient secret and its ability to transform a fragmented world. This rich alternate history binds two women beyond time, each fighting to restore sight to a world blinded by the power and control of men. The fate of the world rests on their courage to reclaim the ancient feminine powers of the Sibylline.
A unique and extremely interesting take on an arcane legend. Fans of historical conspiracies, fantasy, magical realism and novels like The Da Vinci Code will really enjoy this debut.
Enjoyable and action packed . . . It will be interesting to see where the story of the Sibyls goes next.
Welcome to my folktale retellings that rekindle the magic of the aging feminine from old stories.
