Zsallia Marieko is a solitary immortal, very much the pagan barbarian at heart, but tempered by her centuries amongst a growing Christian influence in Western Europe. Her tale is by turns pathetic, endearing, unnerving and horrifying as the reader witnesses her climb from nameless slave to terrifying goddess, then her plunge into murderous insanity until she emerges humbled and remade- all this in just her first 1500 years. Concomitant with that tale is the modern narrative where Zsallia is forced to confront what it means to cease living outside society and join the world around her, to take up the benefits and responsibilities of living openly and asking people to simply accept who and what she is.

Something different, and very good,
By
This review is from: Methuselah's Daughter (Paperback)
I was very impressed with the writing style of these two gentlemen (one of whom I worked with years ago). The story gripped me from the beginning, and I had a very hard time putting it down, even at 1 am when I should have been sleeping. The transitions between the past and the present were also very well done. I would recommend anyone who wants to read something a little different read this.
5.0 out of 5 stars
