by Nikki Marmery

Lilith and Adam are equal and happy in the Garden of Eden–until Adam decides Lilith should submit to his will and lie beneath him. She refuses–and is banished forever from Paradise. Demonized and sidelined, Lilith watches in fury as God creates Eve, the woman who accepts her submission. But Lilith has a secret: she has already tasted the fruit of the Tree of Knowledge. Endowed with wisdom, she knows why Asherah–God’s wife and equal, the Queen of Heaven–is missing. Lilith has a plan: she will rescue Eve, find Asherah, restore balance to the world, and regain her rightful place in Paradise.
