Description
Sarantium is the golden city: holy to the faithful, exalted by the poets, jewel of the world and heart of an empire. The artisan Caius Crispus accepts a mysterious summons from the emperor and sets off on a journey toward the distant city. But before Crispin can reach Sarantium, with its taverns and gilded sanctuaries, chariot races and palaces, he must pass through a land of pagan ritual and mortal danger.
In this first volume of the Sarantine Mosaic, Guy Gavriel Kay weaves an utterly compelling story of the allure and intrigue of a magnificent city and the people drawn into its spell.
