About this listen

When a British princess falls in love with a Roman officer destined for imperial greatness, their forbidden desire exacts an unexpected price: banishment from Avalon. Journeying outside the enchanted isle, Helena grows from maiden to mother to wisewoman, experiencing both joy---with the birth of her child---and loss, when politics forces her lover to choose between the Empire and her. Then Helena's son, Constantine, becomes Emperor, and her position as Empress-Mother propels her to prominence at a crucial turning point in Western history. Seeking a way to bridge the pagan world of the Goddess and the new Christian Empire, Helena embarks on a pilgrimage to the Holy Land to find the truth that transcends both the old religion and the new.

This book can hold its own in the Avalon series but is so good when read as a part of them all as well. Well written, well performed. A very touching and thought provoking story full of magic and inspiration.

Fantastic book

I have either listened or read all of MZB books. This is by far the worst narration, slow slow story I am going to attempt to get a refund from Audible for this. Fingers crossed.

SOOOOOOO disappointed!!!
