Silk Road Timewarp

ByGeorge McNeur

“Salutations to you who come after! I am Kalos Jimenez de Cordoba, cousin to Princess Himilice, daughter of King Mucro de Costula, bride of Hannibal the Great of Carthage. In the spring of 536 ab urbe condita I led a force of two thousand Jinetes cavalry in service of Hannibal across the Pyrenee's, into bloody battle against Rome, before circumstances set me to a new course ever east, to the courts and battlefields of the great Emperor of Qin. I have spanned the breadth of the known world and seen many hardships and wonders. This scroll is my legacy.” So reads the bamboo scroll from the 3rd century BC that leads Kalos' ancestor back in time battling the Legions of Rome, to Qin Dynasty China and the marvels there. An historic fiction tale of men forging empires and the women they loved - a love forbidden as West meets East to become immortalised in Terracotta - only to be hidden away from the modern world. Action, adventure, & romance set against the sweeping drama of the 3rd century BC world.
