Who could've known that a breast-plated heroine who hails from somewhere in ancient history would catapult into the TV ratings stratosphere? That's exactly what has happened with Xena, Warrior Princess, the show that featured Lucy Lawless on a mission to help the downtrodden free themselves from tyranny and injustice. Xena was first introduced in an episode of Hercules as an intrepid warrior bent on destroying the heroic character. But she changed sides when her own army betrayed her. Each episode featured our gal surrounded by baric tribes, slave traders, and a host of other evils, as she righteously battled for good. In addition, Xena became a hot cult favorite, with devotees who pay homage through fan clubs and websites. Life Lessons from Xena, Warrior Princess -- featuring Xena's philosophy of life -- is a campy guide to what the greatest heroine of them all has to teach about today's world.
