"Les Éthiopiennes, ou Théagènes et Chariclée, tomes 1-3" by Heliodorus of Emesa is an ancient Greek novel written in the 220s or 370s AD. When a white-skinned princess is born to the king and queen of Ethiopia, she is abandoned to avoid scandal.

Their journey becomes a perilous odyssey through pirates, bandits, and dangers that ultimately lead them back to Ethiopia—where fate awaits. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
