Goddesses: A Graphic History: A journey to discover the most sacred female deities

Step into the world of goddesses, witches, rebels and queens in this fierce and fascinating graphic history. It is a bold celebration of divine power, femininity and transformation.

Goddesses: A Graphic History is a bold and immersive graphic novel that reimagines ancient goddess traditions through the eyes of a modern-day seeker. Guided by the character of Lilith, readers are taken on a magical journey through Celtic England, Norse and Greco-Roman mythology, Turkey and ancient Egypt, uncovering mystical traditions, powerful deities and long-lost wisdom. Each leg of Lilith’s journey connects to a season, blending myth, ritual and storytelling with themes that feel strikingly current — love, matriarchy and female power. As Lilith learns from each goddess, she also finds connection, friendship and transformation along the way. Perfect for readers drawn to mythology, magic and divine feminine energy, this is a beautifully illustrated spiritual adventure from the artist behind Witchcraft: A Graphic History.
