The Flower of the Cedar

By: Kay ben-Avraham

Narrated by: Kay ben-Avraham

This is a tale of dryads, from a time long before human history began. Lara, a young dryad, once had three hearts (as with all her kind). To recover them and bring them to life, she must set out on an unknown journey. Fearing the god of the land, who reportedly devours hearts, and inexplicably drawn to the lamia (who, tales say, revive hearts by an ominous method called guttings), she leaves her home, embarking on the heart-finding quest.

For lovers of fantasy, mythology, and fairy tales - for those whose bookshelves may harbor the works of J. R. R. Tolkien, C. S. Lewis, Madeleine L’Engle, and others of their glad company - or for dabblers in mysticism and the sacred feminine - this story will doubtless have deep resonance. Originally released in podcast form and performed by the author (www.kaybenavraham.com), The Flower of the Cedar is now available in paperback, Kindle, and audiobook editions.

A Brilliant Reading of a Beautiful Book

Kay's reading is lively, detailed, and a perfect fit for the story and characters. I love this book and I love this reading of it, and I'm excited to hear (and read) more from this author!
