True magic is more astonishing than fantasy! Life is timeless. Esta, the beautiful young Maiden of Massilia, stands before the emperor who rules the civilized kingdoms of the world, Hadrian of Rome! At Esta's side is her childhood friend, Naomi, a Jewess and a Christian, though it is a dangerous time to worship deities other than Jupiter and the pagan pantheon. Summoned from afar, they are brought before the high throne for an extraordinary purpose, a contest of philosophical wit, The Game of the Agora! In a world of magnificence, of splendorous rituals and sacrificial martyrs, an extraordinary woman captivates an Empire. As a child, Esta loved exploring her father's olive grove and the wild seacoast with Naomi. Yet, living in a great seat of ancient learning, she acquires a love of languages and philosophy. Strangely, after nearly drowning in the sea, her intellect is quickened, surprising not only her friends but the masters of the province! While still in her youth, the maiden swiftly rises in station, ultimately becoming Lady Esta of Rome, Imperial Counselor to Hadrian! Inevitably, her political ascent fosters jealousy and dangerous envy, a perilous journey fraught with betrayal and murderous enemies, yet rich in adventure, romance and preternatural awakening. Esta is a timeless story, emotionally captivating, portraying the strength of truth and the unwavering spirit of a heroine whose legacy transcends history.
