City Destroyer
Fifth installment of the brilliant and monumental Tyrant saga, which narrates the epic siege of the island of Rhodes in 305 BC. A novel set in the greatest war in human history. Around 305 BC, two men fought for hegemony in the Mediterranean: Ptolemy, lord of Egypt, and Antigonus the One-Eyed, lord of Asia. And, between them, the strategic island of Rhodes and the fortified city of the same name, which neither could afford to cede to the enemy. For Demetrius, the intelligent but boastful son of Antigonus, Rhodes was a prize that had to be taken at all costs. Surrounded by his powerful fleet, with his army encamped before its walls and the most ingenious siege engines ever built pointing towards it, the city seemed doomed to fall. But trapped behind its walls was a man determined to save it from destruction. A man with the courage and vision to turn the tide against Demetrius and his overwhelming military might. A man who, supported by his closest friends and the woman he loves, simply cannot afford to fail. A man named Satyrus. -- Fifth installment of the brilliant and monumental Tyrant saga, which narrates the epic siege of the island of Rhodes in 305 BC.
