Zona: Princess of Eire

Nick Berry's new book on the adventures of Zona will not disappoint fans of this scantily clad buxom warrior princess with her unique physique and girl-next-door sense of humour. In the opening chapter it's great to meet the team again-Zona and her three faithful followers who have survived the submergence of Atlantis, having been caught up in a gigantic tsunami to be washed up on the shores of Eire! The centre-stage in this novel is of course Eire and the way the author has knitted the story of his traditional heroine Zona into the fabric of the mythological background of Ireland is marvellous. The new `baddy' and noble characters that emerge here are drawn from Irish legends and are vividly revived in this fresh evocation of historical mythology. If you have fallen in love with Zona, you will not be disappointed in this book. If you have fallen in love with Ireland, as many have, you will find this book the best in all of what we now might call the Zona canon.
