Queen of Heaven. Ruler of Earth. But can she survive the depths of the Underworld?

Inanna, the radiant goddess, has everything: the divine powers of creation, truth, and song; the love of the stars and seas; and the admiration of gods and mortals alike. But when her ambition drives her to confront her dark sister, Ereshkigal, ruler of the Underworld, she faces trials that strip her of her power, her pride, and her very life. Stripped bare and hung in the shadowy abyss, Inanna's journey becomes a battle of rebirth and sacrifice, where gods weigh her worth and mortals cry for her return. Will she rise again, scarred but stronger, to reclaim the heavens and light the world?

The Descent of Inanna is an illustrated picture book, featuring the art of celebrated Ukrainian artist Anthony E. Leah. A timeless myth of power, sacrifice, and resilience drawn from ancient Sumerian texts, The Descent of Inanna is for older readers who love tales of gods and mortals, epic journeys, and enduring strength.
