Summary

Two great empires on the brink of war, one last hope for peace....

1294 BC: The fragile accord between the Hittite and Egyptian empires is crumbling. The ancient world braces itself for war on an unprecedented scale. Prince Hattu, the greatest of the Hittite generals, suffers dreams of terrible consequences–conjured by the Goddess Ishtar. But Hattu refuses to accept her prophecies, adamant that there is one last chance for peace. This fragile hope lies in the borderlands of the east, where the two rival empires touch. Hattu gathers a chosen band and sets out for this distant, blistering desert land, determined and defiant.

Yet the further he ventures, the darker and more twisted his mission becomes. Old ghosts rise around him and Ishtar haunts his every move. The Goddess' divinations cannot be avoided, men say. Hattu will walk through fire to prove them wrong.

Must listen for historical fiction fans

Great story line along with well researched facts. The narrator does a fantastic job at bringing the characters to life.

Wonderful story and performance

More wonderful adventures at the end of the Bronze Age. Travels from Anatolia to Ugarit and beyond. Great clashes with the Egyptians and a young Ramses. And of course a fantastic performance by one of the best in the business Jonathan Keeble. Can't wait for more.
