Thomas Burnett Swann was a brilliant fantasy writer who died in 1976. He wrote primarily about the ancient Greek and Roman world, blending myth with romance and adventure. A reviewer in the Village Voice sums his work up well: "Swann's neo-romantic fantasies of the past are unique. He uses the stuff of myth but with twists and inventions of his own."

Queens Walk in the Dusk is a retelling of the romance of Dido and Aeneas. It is a companion volume to Green Phoenix.

Swann creates an a new vision of the story, adding telepathic elephants who live in tents, murderous sea nymphs, and a charming 10 year old boy. Dido, a queen who lives for her people, and Aeneas, heart sore and ready for love, make a satisfyingly passionate couple.

A delightful romantic version of the story of Dido and Aeneas
