I Am Lilith
Melanie Dufty, 2020
This is my own novel, a metaphysical fantasy reimagining the story of Lilith, based on a real 24,000 year astrological cycle that sees the feminine then the masculine on top, before unity occurs - that time is now. In a female-ruled society, she's trapped in an ancient struggle between the sexes. Will she be the spark to restore unity? 6,000 years ago, the mighty High Priestess Lilith is torn between her sacred duty and following the truth in her heart. Haunted by the injustice she oversees, Lilith yearns to set men and boys free from her temple's tyranny. But with a secret prophecy of masculine domination threatening chaos, Lilith is forced to quell a mounting male-led revolt. She finds herself falling for the one man who inspires her trust. But his growing ambitions and a rising war trigger events that demand a starry destiny plays out.
