Cavanila's Choices: A Novel of the Minoan Cataclysm

By Jesse Sisken

Book Overview

"An intriguing debut in a well-drawn ancient setting..."-Kirkus Reviews".
"I heard people screaming Father, I had to go to them." Cavanila's words echoed amidst the ruins of the 17th century B. C. E. earthquake on what is now the Greek island of Santorini (Thera). But what that 20-year old Minoan priestess would soon learn is that far more disastrous events were about to threaten her entire civilization, one of the most powerful and advanced in the ancient world. And what she could not have foreseen was how her commitment to her people's survival would challenge her inner strengths and force her to struggle through a series of increasingly more daring and portentous decisions the outcome of which would put her self-respect and well-being at risk, and change her life forever.
