Book Description

Publication Date: May 1 2003

A chilling novel that explores a genocide of the ancient world. In 146 B.C., after three years of siege, the Roman army took Carthage by storm in a frenzy of total destruction. The people of the city were massacred or enslaved and every single building was razed to the ground. The novel tells of seven very different lives—lives that become inescapably caught up in the destruction, treachery and cruelty that reigned.

4.0 out of 5 stars Carthage? Iraq? Bosnia? Anywhere. April 26 2005
By Beverly Hills - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Paperback
As well as a fine writing style and delicate character and background development, the author brings a wonderfull sense of the timelessness of the clash of nations and empires. The occasional anachronisms in the language give one pause at first but quickly slip into a plan which allows you to imagine Rome in the story standing in for a contemporary Nation or Empire to illustrate the eternal basis for war. Vengance, politics and the economy.

On the other hand it is a well crafted engrossing 'historical' read.
