The Forgotten Tale of Larsa

By: Seja Majeed

Narrated by: Ellen Dunbavin

No story offers a deeper reflection on humanity — or mankind’s endless struggle for power. A bestseller in its first week of release, ranked #4 on Amazon Kindle’s Young Adult Fiction in Ancient Civilisation, The Forgotten Tale of Larsa is an epic of love, loss, and destiny — inspired by history, though forgotten by time. In a ruthless quest to be worshipped as a god, the almighty Assyrian Emperor Jaquzan wages war against a legendary kingdom known only as the Garden of the Gods — a realm so breathtaking it is said to have inspired the creation of the Hanging Gardens of Babylon.

With war looming, the Gallant Warrior Marmicus pleads with his beloved, Princess Larsa, to flee beyond her kingdom’s walls. But when her royal caravan is ambushed, everyone is slaughtered — everyone except Larsa, who is captured and taken to the Emperor to become his slave. In captivity, the once naïve princess must summon her courage, discovering the true meaning of war, tyranny, and sacrifice — as she fights not only for her freedom, but for the survival of her people.

Richly lyrical and deeply cinematic, The Forgotten Tale of Larsa blends the grandeur of ancient mythology with the intimate trials of the human spirit. This is not merely a tale of war — but of what it means to fight, to endure, and to love in the shadow of destruction. A timeless odyssey for listeners who cherish epic adventure, poetic prose, and heroines forged in fire.
