Deeply absorbing and extravagantly imagined…
Love, divided loyalties, and historical intrigue mark MacTavish’s fantastic latest in The Sacred Band Saga. A new empire is dawning in the United States of America. But the descendants of the Sacred Band of Thebes remain loyal to the cause of the Red Dragon and have sworn an oath to protect the Palladium once held within the walls of Ancient Thebes. With the Secret Six’s own alternative vision of control and order for the world, the conflict between the two sides escalates. Which side will win? MacTavish’s expert spin on the history is both imaginative and intensely realized. He is at his best when he imagines different worlds, including the antiquities of Ancient Greece and Arthurian era Britain. Tension mounts as the intelligently crafted, tightly plotted story lines converge. Atmospherically tense prose and authentically drawn, true-to-life characters add depth. With its evocative and visceral worldbuilding, intricate storyline, and measured narrative, this fantastic blend of history and myth makes for a winner.
