Summary

When the falcon has flown, the mountain lion will charge from the east, and all Byzantium will quake. Only one man can save the empire ... the Haga!

1046 AD. The Byzantine Empire teeters on full-blown war with the Seljuk Sultanate. In the borderlands of Eastern Anatolia, a land riven with bloodshed and doubt, young Apion's life is shattered in one swift and brutal Seljuk night raid. Only the benevolence of Mansur, a Seljuk farmer, offers him a second chance of happiness.

Yet a hunger for revenge burns in Apion's soul, and he is drawn down a dark path that leads him right into the heart of a conflict that will echo through the ages.

One of the best audiobooks I’ve ever listened to. Perfectly performed and extremely entertaining. Definitely will download the sequels.

Absolutely phenomenal

there is 1 vs 30, 20 vs 1500, 4 to 1 odds in big battle etc

every fight is just the underdog winning without the enemy even killing one of the underdogs
I understand revenge but it doesn't make you God in a historical novel

totally unbelievable
