About this ebook

Five millennia ago, on the eastern bank of the river Tigris, the course of human history changed forever . . .

The people of Orak cherish their peaceful village and the life they have made.

For those who have known peace must turn their hands to war, to save from the savage invaders not only their families but their way of life.
