"Casagranda's story is a bona fide page-turner that should have
readers rooting for the tenacious Artemisia from beginning to end.
A gripping, fast-paced adventure that delivers passionate
writing."- Kirkus Reviews*****
"The Blood Throne of Caria delivers a magnificent
heroine--Artemisia--a badass princess who maintains mastery over
her own fate. This is a story of power in femininity that will
inspire every woman to rise above her circumstances."--Katherine L.
Evans author of Rise and Unbreakable Love*****"Artemisia promises
to inspire, empower, and uplift her readers with her courage and
fearlessness. She absolutely refuses to be erased and
forgotten--and Casagranda retells her story vividly and
convincingly."--Shehnaz Haqqani, PhD, Women's and Gender Studies,
Ithaca College*****"A true historical thriller - The Blood Throne
of Caria is a brilliantly researched, riveting read about
Artemisia, whose struggle to direct her own destiny in a brutally
patriarchal world is as relevant today as it was more than two
thousand years ago."--Sara Kocek author of Promise Me
Something*****"The Blood Throne of Caria will shock over and over
again in its audacity. Casagranda's Artemisia, masterfully crafted,
is a woman warrior 21st century feminists can look up to."--
Banafsheh Madaninejad, PhD, Department of Philosophy, Southwestern
University*****"Riveting, brilliant, and engaging narrative! I
couldn't put it down! Artemisia's story honors both power and
womanhood to show that a 'female king' is no
contradiction."--Olivia Ott, student, Polymathic Scholars, The
University of Texas at Austin*****"Roy Casagranda, a sharp observer
of contemporary politics, has gone back twenty-five centuries to
produce an epic for our times! Using the brilliant and relentless
career of Artemisia, he offers keen insight, and lessons, about the
nature of power, the role of women in ancient society, and the
possibility of change through persistence. It's an important novel
for those interested in larger social issues, of all ages."--Robert
Buzzanco, PhD, Department of History, University of Houston
