Warriors, Witches, Women is a guide to awe-inspiring mythical female creatures; from feminist fairies to bloodsucking, seductive temptresses, half-human half-bird harpies created from the wind, or protective  voodoo goddesses who still impact on African-American cultural feminism.  The stories of fierce females from mythology and folklore are retold, placing women firmly at the centre of the narrative. Each powerful character will fire the imagination, entertain, and provoke debate.
