Summary
Before Eve, there was Lilith.



Lilith and Adam are equal and happy in the Garden of Eden. Until Adam decides Lilith should submit to his will and lie beneath him. She refuses—and is banished forever from Paradise.



Demonized and sidelined, Lilith watches in fury as God creates Eve, the woman who accepts her submission. But Lilith has a secret: she has already tasted the fruit of the Tree of Knowledge. Endowed with Wisdom, she knows why Asherah—God's wife and equal, the Queen of Heaven—is missing. Lilith has a plan: she will rescue Eve, find Asherah, restore balance to the world, and regain her rightful place in Paradise.



Lilith's quest for justice drives her throughout history, from the ziggurats of Ancient Sumer, to the court of Israel's Queen Jezebel, and to the side of a radical preacher in Roman Judea. Noah's wife, Norea, Jezebel and Mary Magdalene all play their part in Lilith's enlightenment. In the modern age, as she observes the catastrophic consequences of a world built on inequality, Lilith finally understands what must be done to correct the wrong done to women—and all humankind—at the beginning of time.

This book is my favourite read of 2024 so far! It healed me in ways therapy hasn't been able to do.

One of my favourites of the year. Scepticism over the power of the patriarchy or religion? This book is for you

Lots of very interesting themes

Profile Avatar HappyGenny Oct 2025

This is a beautiful, sensitive and life affirming story told by Lilith, the first wife of The Bible’s Adam. After falling out with Adam for rejecting his desire to dominate both her and the earth, she leaves Eden, spending her (immortal) days walking through life (and major biblical events) trying to return humanity to its connection to her goddess, the (also banished) wife of Yahweh, Mother of Humankind. She is a surprisingly relatable, humanly flawed, but intensely loving character in the tradition of Earth and Mother prophets worldwide. Her worldview is tender, loving and deeply connected to the earth. A very satisfying read, especially for those who enjoy lyrical prose and history as seen through alternate lenses.

Loved the story, it was slow but never felt like a slog.

Profile Avatar PlayReader Jan 2026

I am quite certain that this is more true than any supposedly holy book written by followers of the patriarchal religions.The last chapter is obviously prophesy. Excellent narration.

I didn’t finish it.

Profile Avatar Heather D. Nov 2025

Loved it. Just what we all need to hear, especially women. Uplifting. A wonderful alternative story to the current religions.

Profile Avatar Courtney D. Nov 2025

This truly was an inspiration for me. One of the best books I’ve read/listened to. The narrator was perfect also!

Profile Avatar Kristy P. Oct 2025

Great story and perspective. I LOVED the narrator. I knock it down slightly, only because at times, the words come off sounding completely against men. I could be misinterpreting, but at least wanted to mention my reason for 4, instead of 5 stars. Otherwise, a great story--had me captivated
