Popis
Glory. Death. Well-born Athenian cavalry officer, Kineas, fought
shoulder to shoulder with Alexander in his epic battles against the
Persian hordes. But on his return from the east to his native city,
he finds not glory but shame - and exile. With nothing to his name
but his military skills, Kineas agrees to lead a band of veterans
to the city of Olbia, where the Tyrant is offering good money to
train the city's elite cavalry. But soon Kineas and his men find
they have stumbled into a deadly maze of intrigue and conspiracy as
the Tyrant plots to use them as pawns in the increasingly complex
power games between his own citizens, and the dread military might
of Macedon. Caught between his duty to the Tyrant, his loyalty to
his men and a forbidden love affair with a charismatic Scythian
noblewoman, Kineas must call on all his Athenian guile, his flair
on the battlefield, and even - he is convinced - the intervention
of the gods, to survive.
