The Women of Artemis by Hannah Lynn is a bold, immersive work of historical fiction that reimagines the mythic origins of the Amazons through the eyes of Otrera, a young bride who learns—too soon—what life can look like under a violent, entitled husband.
Years into marriage and pushed to the edge, Otrera stops accepting the rules handed down to women. She gathers others who’ve lived the same quiet suffering, and together they choose something dangerous: resistance. Their escape becomes a movement, then a sisterhood, and finally the beginnings of an army with a purpose. In a world shaped by men and watched by gods, their fight for freedom is never simple—and never safe.
Perfect for readers who love feminist retellings, Greek mythology, warrior women, and gritty stories of survival and solidarity, especially fans of Madeline Miller or Elodie Harper.
