Description:
A 3-in-1 edition of the classic romance fantasy series where a modern girl is whisked to ancient times and must navigate a scheming court and warring factions while trying to find her way home.

Yuri, a modern teenager, is transported to ancient Anatolia as part of a scheme by the evil Nakia, queen of the Hittites. Only the intervention of Nakia’s stepson, Prince Kail, saves Yuri from the queen’s bloodthirsty intentions. As an unintended consequence of the prince’s actions, the people of Anatolia embrace Yuri as the incarnation of the great war goddess Ishtar.

Yuri and Rusafa are captured by Ramses and the Egyptian forces. While prisoners, they discover that someone in Kail’s trusted circle is actually leaking information to the Egyptians. Rusafa attempts to escape and inform Kail, but any warning could be arriving too late.
