Ayesha is back in the thrilling sequel to She, bursting with adventure, desire, and disaster
Witnessing Ayesha&;s dramatic demise, Horace Holly and Leo Vincey have not given up their hope of seeing her again after she promised in her last moments of life she would return. Still haunted by her presence 16 years later, they receive a vision that She has been reincarnated, so they set off on a dangerous journey through unchartered lands battling murderous tribes, avalanches, and glaciers before finally arriving in the court of Kaloon. Ruled by the evil Khan Rassen and his imperious wife, the Khania Atene, Kaloon is an uneasy, dangerous place and when Atene declares her love for Leo, disaster is soon on the cards, especially when Leo believes he has finally located Ayesha. Brimming with drama, passion, revenge, and adventure, this fitting sequel to a much-loved classic richly deserves a revival.
