Discover the epic saga of the oldest, continuous hereditary monarchy in the world-the 2600 years old, Chrysanthemum Throne of Japan. "The Goddesses of Japan" is a history-based book that takes you on a journey through the country's rich past, narrated by unsung heroines-goddess, sovereign, mother, wife, warrior, lover-all who played a pivotal role in shaping the fate of the nation.

From Izanami and Izanagi, the divine couple tasked with creating the Land of the Rising Sun and their heart-wrenching fate that tears them apart to the rise of Amaterasu, the indomitable Sun Goddess, witness the birth of the legendary Yamato Dynasty-a lineage safeguarded by the mystical Three Sacred Imperial Regalia.

But power is a fickle mistress. As the Samurai rise and the Imperial House's grip loosens, Japan plunges into a century and a half of brutal civil wars. Ninja agents infiltrate the chaos, both exacerbating and aiding the path to reunification.

Just when the sword seems to be the ultimate authority, a new player enters the scene-Christianity.

Having subdued nations and ignited the Inquisition, will Japan be its next conquest?
