Book Synopsis Heliodorus by : Heliodorus (of Emesa.)
Book excerpt: The central love-struck characters are Charicles, the beautiful daughter of the Ethiopian queen, and Theagenes, a Thessalian aristocrat. The story unfolds with all the twists and devices any writer would employ today, with the added attractions of dreams, oracles, and exotic locales in the ancient Mediterranean and Africa."--BOOK JACKET.
