Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

Makedonia is close to breaking.Surrounded by hostile neighbours and watched by distant powers eager to exploit its weakness, the kingdom faces threats on every frontier. Worse still, the danger does not come only from without. Rivals to the throne, backed by foreign interests and old grudges, plot to usurp the crown.With the weight of a kingdom on his shoulders, the young king of Makedonia must defend his realm while fending off the opportunists. Every concession invites challenge, and betrayal is rife within the royal court of Pella. To fail is not merely to lose a war, but to lose the kingdom and his life.As the great poleis of Hellas manoeuvre for hegemony, few expect Makedonia to survive its own moment of crisis, let alone shape the future of the Hellenic world.Set in 4th century BC Greece, this is a story of warfare, ambition, diplomatic shrewdness, and a leader forged under pressure, in the years before history turns its gaze north.The first novel in an epic series set in ancient Greece. Perfect for readers of historical fiction who enjoy political intrigue, ancient warfare, and the rise of forgotten kingdoms
