The final installment of The Maeve Chronicles.

The prequel to The Passion of Mary Magdalen, now in paperback.

For the millions of readers fascinated by Dan Brown's revelations about Mary Magdalen in The Da Vinci Code, here, at last, is their chance to meet the Gospel's most provocative woman face to face-on her own terms.Make way for a new Magdalen. Born on a Celtic isle to eight warrior-witch mothers, Maeve is raised to be as brave as any hero. In her stubborn, enchanting voice, she recounts her perilous quest for the young man, Esus, whose life she once saved from druid sacrifice. Captured and sold to a Roman Madam, Maeve is sustained by a fierce sense of identity, compassion for her sister whores, and her unquenchable love. When she wins her freedom and finds her lost lover, a stormy life begins for both as we follow the Passion story through the eyes of Jesus's partner. By turns feisty and funny, outrageous and tender, this Celtic Mary Magdalen challenges all stereotypes, both old and New Age, and brings us to transforming encounter with the divine feminine made flesh.

"Enter the world of The Wild Mother-modern fairytale, bold biblical midrash, filled with the psychological depth and imaginative originality for which the author of The Maeve Chronicles is known. Elizabeth Cunningham's classic feminist novel is as fresh and timeless today as when it was first released in 1993 to critical acclaim. Adam Underwood and Eva Brooke appear to be made for each other. Both are single parents. Both are academics-he a dazzling, enigmatic professor of alchemy, she a humble but dedicated professor of fairytales. Adam's children, Ionia and Fred, share a latchkey after school with Eva's precocious son, Jason. So why don't Adam and Eva marry and live happily ever after? Eva can't help wondering. Pathologically polite, she cannot bring herself to ask personal questions. She struggles not to find it strange that Adam has never so much as mentioned his children's absent mother. Nor has Adam's own mother-cum-housekeeper, the feisty, outspoken Ursula, ever uttered her name. Yet Eva glimpses the missing woman in ten-year-old Ionia's haunted and haunting purple eyes and in Ionia's drawings of a woman dancing on the crest of a hill, wild black hair spread out against the sky.... Then one night, she returns: Lilith, the wild mother. The precarious status quo that Eva, Adam, and their families have achieved is shattered and their world is turned inside out or, more precisely, outside in. As wild breaks into their lives, Adam, obsessed with control, attempts to seal them all in a deadly trap. Now a crucial challenge confronts each one of them. Will these very human beings embrace their own wildness, risking all they value and understand? Or will they deny the freedom essential to Lilith's nature-and their own"-- Provided by publisher

Caroline Petit catches the sights, smells, sounds and tastes of Hong Kong, China and Manchuria in 1937 as they filter through the senses of a fascinating young woman.

"The Goddess is returning! She takes shape in the hands of an Episcopal priest's shy wife. She invades the dreams of a grande dame who finds women priests scandalous. She lures a poker-playing ex-convict onto unfamiliar terrain. Meanwhile, a mysterious old man in the wood waits for a sign of Her return. Who is the Goddess? Where has She been for so long? And what does She want from the four human beings whose lives she turns upside down? As Esther, Spencer, Marvin, and Fergus confront these questions, they forge friendships across boundaries of age, class, and race, meanwhile discovering-and recovering-powerful erotic passions. Their encounters lead them deeper into Blackwood, an old estate that shelters an imperiled grove of trees sacred to the Goddess, which becomes their mission to save. The Return of the Goddess, A Divine Comedy marks Cunningham's first exploration of Christianity and the power of a divine feminine-forgotten, obscured, and suppressed by the Church-and takes the reader into the world of Cunningham's origins. Thirty-one years after its first publication, the book remains a classic in what has become a movement to reclaim the Goddess and embody Her return"-- Provided by publisher
