Description
Athenian cavalry officer Kineas returns from his epic battles against the Persian hordes to find shame and exile in his native city. With nothing but his military skills, he agrees to lead a band of veterans to train the elite cavalry of Olbia.
However, their mission soon becomes a deadly maze of intrigue and conspiracy as they become pawns in the power games between the Tyrant's citizens and the Macedonian military might. Caught between duty, loyalty, and forbidden love, Kineas must use all his guile and battle prowess to survive.
This gripping tale of betrayal, deception, and survival is set against a backdrop of ancient politics and war.
