Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

In Book 5 of the Dacian Wildcat Series, Castor leaves Roman control behind and sets out on the most dangerous journey of his life.Thirteen-year-old Castor has never stopped longing for his Dacian father. He believes Genaro is somewhere in Rome, and he is determined to find him-even if that means running from the people trying to protect him. With his friends Brahn and Hector caught up in his plan, Castor escapes Tomis aboard the last ship of the season and crosses the sea toward the heart of the empire.Rome is not the answer he hoped it would be.Castor searches markets, inns, slave auctions, and gladiator schools, learning more about the Roman world than he ever wanted to know. He encounters danger in the streets, recovers under the watch of Praefectus Tarquin, draws the attention of Emperor Trajan, and finds an unexpected friendship with Cresin, a boy he once considered an enemy.Yet Castor's need to find his father will not be silenced. When new information points north, he risks everything again. With Hector and Brahn beside him, he begins a grueling overland journey through winter mountains, Roman territory, unfamiliar villages, hunger, injury, predators, and fear.Castor's Journey is a historical adventure about loyalty, friendship, survival, Roman society, and one boy's painful search for home, family, and the true meaning of fatherhood.
