About this audiobook
'Wonderful history, adventure and a heart-breaking love story are brought thrillingly to life' - Kate Mosse
'A dramatic read from the very outset' - Simon Scarrow
Destiny, inheritance, the world shifting from east to west. This is an epic novel set in an age of dramatic change.
Siward, scion of a great dynasty, commands the Varangian Guard and has vowed to defend the Roman Empire to the last. Makkim, renowned general to Ottoman rule, has vowed to destroy it.
They are enemies in war, but unknown to them, they are also rivals to inherit one of Europe's greatest fortunes. Even worse, they are competing for the love of the same woman.
Their vast inheritance lies in Venice, as does the famous courtesan they both love. She is the reason they will find themselves fighting on the walls of Constantinople, in one of the most dramatic sieges in history.
