Publisher's summary

Not all battles are won by the sword.

Jurian’s victory against the dark power in Cyrene has earned him renown throughout the Empire, but fame means nothing to him if he can’t save the friend he lost.


When Jurian’s search for Menas leads him to Alexandria, he finds an unlikely ally in the Roman governor’s brilliant and precocious daughter, Aikaterina. Together they are swept into the glittering intrigue of Diocletian’s court in Nicomedia, where no one and nothing is what it seems. Then Sabra arrives in the city, and Jurian proves to the Emperor that he is more than just a legend, and finally everything he ever hoped for seems within his reach. But Marcus Valerius Casca is also vying for Diocletian’s favor, and his hatred for Jurian knows no limits.

As Casca’s devious plotting snares each of Jurian’s friends in turn, Jurian must discover a way to beat his enemy at his own game and rescue Menas before he destroys them all.

From the exotic Alexandria to the imperial court of Nicomedia and the bloody sands of the Roman Colosseum, this sweeping second installment of the Sword and Serpent series will pull you into a riveting adventure through a world of deadly intrigue, where nothing is what it seems and the price of freedom can be greater than life itself.

Saints aren’t born.
They are forged.

The series that keeps getting better

This sequel truly delivers. Thrilling and suspenseful with twists and turns that kept me guessing. I could hardly put this one down. Excellent narration performance also. I look forward to the next book in the series.

Better than the first book that was already good!

I couldn't put it down. the story was entertaining and exciting. Thanks Dr. T Marshall! Kennedy Hall does a great job with the reading and giving life to the character voices. I often forgot it was being read to me by just one man!

Somewhat Disappointed

I hate giving out bad reviews on books. It is immensely difficult to write a book. Additionally, I have a great deal of respect for the author and the narrator for their overall body of work.

Marshall’s writing was just clunky. Most of the character development seemed unearned. The chief antagonist was inorganic to his surroundings. Too many characters had their own agendas that diluted the main quest of the protagonist.

Kennedy Hall did a splendid job giving life to the story. If he’s not given more work in this field, it’ll be a shame.

Again, I like Marshall. If he wrote another novel, I’d buy it hoping for improvement. I want him to do well, but he needed better critiquing before publishing this one.
