A Sumerian portal device is unearthed in southern Iraq. No one knows how the ancients achieved such technology, or whether they found the gods on the other side of the universe. But one thing is clear: the world is ending, and the device may be humanity's last chance of surviving.

Shamurammat (Semiramis) was a lydian-babylonian woman who did not let others scare her. She fought for everything she had. - "The gods have blessed me, and I will bless my people"

This fascinating short story sets you up for an amazing adventure! Get to know the Sumerians, people who walked Mesopotamia (now known as Western Asia) long ago. You can also look into the life of a Sumerian girl named Puabi and learn more about an extraordinary culture.

An immigrant priestess must defeat the imperialist elements of her adopted Temple: people willing to pervert the core tenets of their city-building god in order to spread his influence-through genocide. The main point is about the importance of infrastructure and "boring" maintenance work, with a side of how frustrating it can be to have to deal with boring maintenance work when you're trained to be a high-end creator/designer type. Irella is a Mesopotamian-esque priestess with magic, but when her patron and friend the emperor dies, she's too foreign and too weird to have the clout she needs to save people from disaster -- unless she really ups her game and gets a lot more confidence in herself!

Princess Ishtar's life in Ur is filled with lessons on magic and mythology-until An, king of the gods, accuses her father of stealing the Tablet of Destinies. To punish him, An takes her brother Sargon hostage and threatens him to send him to the Underworld unless the Tablet is returned in a week's time. Desperate to save her brother, Ishtar accidentally summons Enki, the teenage god of wisdom, who agrees to help her - along with Zana, a priestess-in-training. Together, they set off on a perilous journey across Ancient Sumeria to find the tablet, facing monsters, dangerous gods, and impossible trials along the way. As Ishtar discovers new magical powers and uncovers hidden truths, she must decide who to trust and what price she's willing to pay to save her family. With dark forces at play, Ishtar must prepare for a battle that could change the fate of deities and men alike.

En-men-gal-ana was a babylonian king who lived to see the prime and the best of Babylon before the gods sent a flood that would cleanse the earth from the noise the humans made. Who was En-men-gal-ana? And what made him so special?

Anura's father protected her from the Akkadians, but with a cost. Anura now ventures to take revenge to the very soldier who killed him. She wants to take the throne. She will. But what if there was trouble, and mixed feelings for one specific Akkadian? She shouldn't feel this way. She hates Akkadians. Hates them. So why was she feeling this way? Read and find out now!!

So I wrote this as a project for my mythology class, specifically to make fun of archaeologists saying everything they find has a meaning. I wrote this in an attempt to emulate a 13-year-old finding the story of Gilgamesh and decided it seemed like a love story so....this was born. (Prof. Tracy I promise this isn't plagiarism)

When Zaynab left her beloved Iraq and moved to Sydney, Australia never did she imagine that life would be so different. Her mind constantly flutters around the images of her home. However, she's not alone. A second heart aches for Her beloved home as well. And when they met they knew that together they can mend their troubles and bring pride to what they hold so dear. And so, the rivers which nurtured their childhood inevitably became their symbols towards success. - Note; This is simply but a story my mind conjured up. All characters are fictional and were never intended to relate to anyone. Enjoy. 😘💕

Perhaps this is why Christie chose to have her house on the top of Prophet Johnna hill, the same place where the great Palace of the Assyrian King Sanharib was. Deep in it, endless armories are saved with his secrets that are buried in the sand. Christies drew inspirations from the darkness of the earth. Her mysterious stories were derived from these elements. There is hardly any difference between the edge of a dagger and a sword, pistol or gun shot, mangonel and artillery shells; they all lead to the same result. The pawns would always perform their preset roles which would take their lives one after another despite their youth. This enormous stock was an everlasting inspiration for Christie to produce creative series of novels, to come up with genius scenarios after coming together with the Kings of Mesopotamia in her dreams. They shared with her the secrets of kings and the puzzles of war and peace. She also secretly talked to her beloved antiquities. Christie once wrote in 1944: "I will go there again, the things I love on this land will never perish." This did not happen though... The monuments on this land turned into ruins because of war. Here, since the beginning of time, war embraces the fake peace, after the river meets the desert and majesty undermines reality; a reality fatigued by the struggle between faith and disbelief, the collusion of civilizations, and the endless battles of Contradictions on this land. Let the ashes of war bear witness.......................... The tale still have things to be told. https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/9922214296
