Description

The year is 1453. For over a thousand years, the mighty walls of Constantinople have protected the capital of the Eastern Roman Empire, the furthest outpost of Christianity. But now, an endless army of Turkish warriors covers the plains before them, their massive cannons trained on the ramparts. Treachery and desperation are in the air as three individuals struggle to determine the fate of an empire: a young Turkish Sultan, a stubborn Byzantine princess, and a mercenary captain with a personal score to settle. As the battle for Constantinople rages on, one hardened soldier must face his final stand - but finds something to live for after all. Siege is a full-blooded historical adventure novel that brings to life the intrigue and savagery of this pivotal moment in history.
