A snippet from Call of a Raven

Here is a small excerpt from my upcoming historic fiction/fantasy Goddess in Flames: Call of a Raven. #Otherworld
***
He pulled her close and explained, “Men are taught to loathe and fear their mother, for to submit to her is to admit her power over them; to accept their mortality—their weakness. So we blindly go about our lives denying her truth: as are we born of her power, so must we return to her in the end, when we die; when she drinks our blood, eats our flesh, and swallows our bones. Too few bear the heart to heed such wisdom, that we belong to her, and she bows to no one save for the sun and stars. That, my dear, is why it is the stars that show way to the birth of Jesus, the human incarnation of the Sun. For if the male deity can mount the world as a man than surely we in His image should rightfully inherit the Earth and therefore claim our power over her.”
