The sun had just dipped below the horizon, its last fiery remnants staining the sky blood red. Cyprus, in the waning hours of day, appeared to hold its breath.
In the valley below, the air was thick with the stench of dust and sweat as a convoy of soldiers and scholars pressed forward, their tired horses plodding along the narrow, winding road. Torches flickered on the wagons, casting long, jagged shadows that danced like ghosts on the stone walls.
The convoy was small, less than two dozen men, barely half of them soldiers; yet their mission was unlike any other. They were here for a purpose that could shake the very foundation of history. They sought the lost Library of Alexandria, hidden somewhere deep within the Byzantine Empire. Knowledge. Power. A treasure greater than gold, and far more dangerous.
A historical novel.
James O. Miller. After 23 years of high school teaching history and four years teaching in Germany retirement didn’t come well especially since I hate gardening and golf. So I decided to exercise my imagination combined with my academic knowledge.
