This is the novel of Eunostos, the last of an ancient and powerful race of bull-men, of the Achaean conqueror Ajax, and the beautiful Thea, known as the Beast Princess. You will not soon forget these characters, nor the unusual Bears of Artemis, the treacherous, bee-like creatures called Thriae, and the rest of the humans and non-humans who come to final battle in the thunderous War of the Beasts.
