Voice of the Goddess immerses the reader the reader in an ancient (1600 BC) Mediterranean culture unlike any with which we are familiar. Until the discovery in the twentieth century of their spectacular ruins on the island of Crete, the existence of Minoan people lay buried and forgotten by the world. Their memory perhaps lingered only in myths passed down by storytellers who spoke of an elegant, graceful society whose people lived at peace with each other in a place the storytellers called Atlantis.

Leesandra of Keftiu is born on Crete into a society devoted to the Great Goddess. We follow her and the man who will become her lover, Alektrion of Kalliste, from youth until the time in adulthood when they enter into the final struggle to preserve their peace-loving way of life from the brutal encroachment of mainland foes bent on their subjugation. Into this primal mix of passion and war is added the historical 1628 BCE volcanic explosion of the nearby island we now call Santorini - a staggering natural catastrophe.
