A fantasy epic that does not borrow a foreign world but draws on the history and the Illyrian and Roman heritage of the Adriatic. War drives the plot, the gods come from ancient tradition, and a carefully built system of magic not only explains the world but changes it, among complex and vivid characters. First written in instalments on the author's blog in 2008, the story turns on the destructive power of war.
