Overview

After more than ten years, Michael Ehart’s legendary warrior woman returns in a stunning new edition, with over 15,000 new words, new artwork by MD Jackson and the original foreward by Michael Moorcock.

The most complete edition to date!

She is a reluctant warrior, under a curse of an ancient evil, immortal and tortured, striding the ancient world as she seeks an end to her torment, driven by her curse. Remembered only in the songs whispered in the camp-fire light, she has even forgotten her name. After 600 years, change arrives in the form of an accidentally adopted daughter, who gives her a name, along with hope for the future. Together they will gather the Tears of Ishtar to try to end her centuries long curse.

“Michael Ehart’s ‘Tears of Ishtar” is everything you want in a sword and sorcery adventure. An epic quest, two vivid and real female characters and a richly detailed world of danger and adventure are brought to life by Ehart’s powerful writing.” Mary Rosenblum, author of Horizons

About the Author

He made his first sale to a magazine at age 15, which means he has been writing for over 50 years, with the aforementioned occasional breaks for gainful employment.
Several of the short stories that make up a portion of The Tears of Ishtar were nominated for various awards, including the Million Writers Award and top ten finishes in the 2007 and 2008 Preditors and Editors poll. His story Without Napier was a 2008 Pushcart Award nominee.
