Prometheus Saga (Kerrion)

An immortal, shape-changing alien seeking a reason for being... A young woman on the brink of greatness... Fu Hao, daughter of a chieftain, accepts the greatest of honors--to be one of King Wu Ding's sixty wives--propelling her to power in the Shang Dynasty and into the annals of history. No one speaks of the mysterious "amah" who attended Fu Hao from her first to last breath. More devoted than a mother and possessed of the wisdom of ages, the amah transforms a girl-child into a queen, high priestess, and warlord. This is Fu Hao's story. And this is the story of the long-forgotten seventeenth slave... Readers of ancient history and fans of the Double Helix series will enjoy this blend of historical and speculative fiction, an unforgettable foray into the life of the Shang dynasty's most remarkable woman, Lady Fu Hao.
