MAGDALENE - THE WITCH OF THE GRAIL LEGENDS We fought and raged at each other much of the time but that's what gave the whole affair its interest; his intelligence and his tenderness and yes, of course, the sex. Spanning two continents and two peoples, both occupied by Rome, MAGDALENE is the unorthodox story of a woman who in later years becomes Mary, of bad-girl-comes-good, propaganda. The perpetual moniker of an opinionated woman. Miriam, young, naive initiate of the lineage of Asherah, in the Jerusalem of the first century CE, is the bride of a chosen warrior-king. From the insurrections of Judea, through Cornwall and Glastonbury, to the Druid Isle and the mists of Ireland, Miriam--visionary, rebel, leader, mother and prophet--becomes a stranger to the life she once believed in, strong in the face of the savagery of war, defiant of the rules of men and wise in the knowledge of birth, death, sex and healing. While part one is a love story and an adventure in consciousness, part two--the addendum called GOD'S BASTARDS--will have you questioning what history and religion claim as factual.
