Warrior Queen of the Steppes J T Willcox

This is the third and final book of the Aqaba trilogy. Erin, the young Warrior Princess of the Horse Soldiers of Aqaba continues to deny her destiny. This is until events force her to look deep into her soul and accept or reject the prophecies foretold in the dreams of a Saint -St Thacia, the virgin who walked with the Apostle Paul. She fights against the future foretold for her by a Saint and the Shaman of the Great Plains - a future she wholeheartedly rejects - a future that talks of a Wolf walking with The Hunter. This is a destiny that requires her to unite the tribes under one banner and would see her as a great Warrior Queen, Queen of the Steppes. She is thrust into roles she wants no part of. Like a headstrong horse resisting the bit she throws her head and paws the ground, determined not to succumb. Once again, she must conquer inner demons. One of her biggest battles is about to occur. This a battle within that will see her accept her destiny or continually rail against it. To succeed she needs strength, a strength that is imparted to her in the love and understanding of her closest friend and ally - 'The Grey' - her grey Arabian War Horse, Aqaba Minstrel. Is our future already written from the day we are born? No matter what road we take does it all lead to the same destination? Life is made up of choices - is it really or is this an apparition also? This is Erin's dilemma. Will she choose or will her fate choose for her? Ride with her on this most dangerous and exciting of journeys. Saddle up and ride with the Black Wolf!
