Xena: Warrior Princess is a cult classic starring Lucy Lawless & Renee O'Connor. September 04, 2020 is the 25th Anniversary of a show that changed lives forever. A phenomenal fandom - the Xenaverse - was born at the birth of the internet. It set the standard for all other fandoms to follow! Celebrate with us and discover the rich tapestry of the Xenaverse.

It has taken an Amazon Village to produce this extraordinary history of the Xenaverse, the fandom born at the birth of the internet. In this 25th Anniversary Edition, we have fifty-eight authors who have written sixty-eight chapters outlining the evolution of the Xenaverse. There are seventy-one fan-contributed stories of lives changed forever. From fan fiction writers blossoming into published authors, interviews with artists and videographers, webmasters creating sites in the new digital frontier, filmmakers getting their start in the Xenaverse and going on to produce award-winning shows of their own, inclusive of LGBT+ fans, and greater good endeavors that have raised millions for charity...all from one incredible fandom.

Full content visible, double tap to read brief content.

Mary is an award-winning author from Australia with a literary career spanning five decades. She began by crafting short stories about the antics of neighborhood misfits, which found their way into various Australian and U.S. magazines. Along the way, she ventured into non-fiction, but it was her deep-rooted passion for history—particularly the courageous women of the Greek Resistance during World War II—that inspired her to explore their stories through fiction.

Her debut full-length novel, In the Blood of the Greeks, was released in 2001 alongside the short story You Must Remember This, published under the title Out of Darkness.

Since then, Mary has received multiple accolades for her historical fiction, romance, and urban fantasy works. One of the proudest moments of her career came when In the Blood of the Greeks—along with its companion non-fiction volume, In the Blood of the Greeks: The Illustrated Companion—was chosen by the Jewish Museum of Greece for its collection on the Holocaust in Greece during World War II.

Xena like milk, does a body good!
5 out of 5 stars
Xena like milk, does a body good!
It took us by surprise that the book was thick and heavy! It was well-printed and a great quality book! We have enjoyed reading every story submitted and have read a couple stories over and over. The book has opened our eyes and we have learned so much. We have learned just how profound the show, Xena: Warrior Princess, has truly affected and touched so many lives across the world. The show brought out the best in people and just like Xena, each has discovered her/his own many skills. Because we all knew XWP, we have been changed for good.

    I loved this book. I really didn't know what it contained.
    So much history of the show, the fandom, the stars, brought back lots of memories.
    I had no idea there was still active fandom going on!
    Incredible, touching stories from so many people whose lives were impacted by
    this show and the Xenite Community!
    This book directly led me to finally sign up for Xenite Retreat.
    Highly recommended if you are/were ever a fan of the show!

    An excellent read with incredible art pieces by fans showcased along the way. MaryD outlines the vast history of the Xena fandom offline and online really well. The different perspectives from several contributors are also fun to go through. For newer fans, consider this an essential guide for everything you may have missed from a dedicated fanbase starting back in 1995. And of course, longtime fans will be thrilled to relive different periods of Xena's 25+ year impact on the world. Reading this helped me gain a deeper appreciation for all things XenER. Highly recommended!

    Just finished the book. It was released yesterday. All I can say is, thank you. Thank you to the creators of this show, to Mary D for the incredible work, and to the Xenites who make the Xenaverse the force for good that it is. The final image in the book has not left my mind. Granted I only finished reading 5 minutes ago, but I have a feeling this will stay with me for a long time.

    Un libro bellissimo, pubblicato in occasione del venticinquesimo anniversario di Xena Principessa Guerriera. Contiene una sezione con le storie dei fan, sul perché il telefilm li ha aiutati. L'intero ricavato delle vendite andrà a beneficio di due organizzazioni create da Lucy e Renee, le due attrici principali.

    This book is a magnificent journey to the past, to memories and great times, as well as to the friends and teachings Xena and Gabrielle gave us. It's expensive, but the quality of the pictures, the number of pages and the content are worth it.
