Description
209 BC: As Hannibal faces defeat in Italy, the struggle between Rome and Carthage has spread to Spain.
Mattias commands the Carthaginian army. As new threats emerge, he must battle more than just the hated Roman enemy to protect what he holds most dear. Ilde, a Spanish noblewoman, preserves the fragile loyalty of the indigenous communities through her marriage to Mattias. The war delivers an unexpected opportunity to change her destiny—and that of her beloved nation.
Marcus, a Roman officer, is sent in disgrace to the war in Spain. Finding redemption amongst the fighting, he is forced to question his own loyalties and the morality of the war itself.
As the war sets Spain ablaze, each must make impossible choices that will decide their own future, the fate of Spain—and the destiny of empires.

I really enjoyed this book, it was well written with an intriguing and well researched story and well developed characters. The book was full of vivid descriptions that really brought the settings and the history alive. A really good read.
Thank you NetGalley for the eARC. I love anything historical. This was no different. I did not know much about this time period but I fully loved this book. Some of the scenes were intense and I could not put the book down. I recommend
Wow! This book is about several people, of different cultures, trying to defend their way of life or take over someone else's way of life. The story takes place during the Punic Wars, and although a fictionalized story, is very realistic. I think anyone who loves historic, especially ancient civilization historic novels, will like this book. It is well written and the characters make you feel for them.
I was given the opportunity to read this book by NetGalley, in exchange for an honest review.
