Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:
Adventurer Ethan Gage travels through the darkest and most superstitious realms of eighteenth century Europe, to the castles and caves of Bohemia to rescue his family and uncover a mysterious medieval device rumored to foretell the future.
Having quick-wittedly survived the battle of Trafalgar, Ethan is rushing to rescue "Egyptian priestess" Astiza and son Harry from imprisonment by a ruthless mystic who seeks revenge for disfigurement, and an evil dwarf alchemist who experiments with the occult on Prague's Golden Lane.
Using death as his ruse, and a pair of unlikely allies--a Jewish Napoleonic soldier and his sutler father--Ethan must decipher clues from Durendal, the sword of Roland. Astiza uses her own research to concoct an explosive escape and find a lost tomb, their tormentors in relentless pursuit.
William Dietrich skillfully weaves intrigue and magic, romance and danger in a historical thriller that sprints from the fury of Napoleonic war to the mystic puzzles of Central Europe. What enigmas will the fabled Brazen Head finally reveal
On a quest to rescue "Egyptian priestess" Astiza and son Harry from their enemies, Ethan and a pair of unlikely allies must decipher clues from the sword of Roland to save his family and uncover a mysterious medieval device rumored to foretell the future.
