Although she was eventually defeated by the emperor Aurelian in AD 274, Zenobia's life is a story of remarkable drama and achievement, ending in tragic defeat and suicide.
In this vividly recounted account of the Palmyrene warrior queen, Yasmine Zahran explores the blurred line between the woman and the myth, and brings her world and time to life through first-person narrative.
