Aeneas: Landfall of Legend - Paperback

by Eric Dawe (Author)

A King driven by an Oracle's Prophecy. A Princess touched by Divine Fire. A Golden Shield that Foretells the Future. A Sword whose Name will become a Legend. Aeneas, the last King of Troy, has fled his burning fabled city with the Trojan survivors. Obeying the decree of the gods, he sails across the world to find Hesperia, the lost homeland of his forefather and the promise of hope for his son and his people. After storms and battle and heartbreak, he makes landfall on that legendary coast only to find the flames of war waiting for him once again. But so is the woman who holds the key to his redemption. When the Trojans are besieged by an immense army bent on destroying them and Aeneas' son is kidnapped and delivered to their murderous king, only a miracle can save them. A mysterious augur named Myrddinus summons Aeneas to his crystalline cave and presents him with a golden shield that foretells the future and a mighty sword named Excalibur. The means to victory and his son's deliverance lie in Aeneas' grasp - if he can unlock the power in the augur's gifts. An epic tale of courage, hope, love, and betrayal, 'Aeneas, Landfall of Legend' is the rousing conclusion to the story begun in 'Aeneas, Last King of Troy'.
