PIERCING EAGLE SHADOW: The Edomite
Amidst the dying echoes of the Roman Republic and the twilight of an independent Judea, a new power will rise, forged in blood and ambition.
From the desert's edge, an ambitious young Herod fights for his life, navigating the cutthroat politics of his homeland and winning the favor of mighty Rome. As the empires of Julius Caesar, Mark Antony, and Cleopatra clash in a world-spanning drama, their epic struggles become mere backdrops for the ruthless battle for the kingdom of Judea. Herod transforms a fractured land into a realm of unparalleled grandeur, a jewel reflecting the might of Caesar Augustus himself.
But absolute power casts an even deeper shadow. As Herod's influence grows, so does the paranoia that grips his very soul. The intimate bonds of family twist into a deadly snare, and within his own palace, loyalty becomes a dangerous illusion.
The Edomite, the inaugural volume in the Piercing Eagle Shadow series, is a gripping historical thriller. It plunges into the heart of a tumultuous dynasty where every secret is a weapon, and the fight for the throne ignites a tragic, unforgettable saga that echoes from Jerusalem to the very heart of the Roman Empire.
Uncover the piercing shadow an empire casts and the ascent of one of history's most fascinating, tormented kings.
