Stories from the Limes: In the Talons of the Eagle

A Whisper of Freedom

De: Petra Horst

At Long Last – It Has Arrived!
With In the Talons of the Eagle – A Whisper of Freedom, author Petra Horst presents the eagerly awaited third volume in her four-part young adult series—a compelling saga that fits seamlessly alongside the previously released Tales from the Limes, published by Stephan Moll Verlag Kordel in recent years.

While the earlier installments already shed light on life in Roman Germania between the first and third centuries, this latest entry once again leads readers to the Limes—the outer frontier of the Roman Empire. At the outset of the story, however, this boundary has not yet been established; it will only come into being under Emperor Domitian in the years that follow. These formative events, along with the ever-simmering tensions between Romans and Germanic tribes, are once more at the heart of the narrative.

Yet readers won’t find themselves buried in dry historical detail. Instead, they’ll be swept up in a gripping tale of love, honor, and betrayal—one that tests the resolve of young protagonists Julia and Ansgar and keeps the audience riveted until the very end.
Recommended for readers aged sixteen and up.
