Synopsis
In 2000 B.C., a case of sibling rivalry among the sons of Hengall, the chief in a place called Ratharryn, gives rise to the building of a temple to a new deity, the sun god Slaol. The temple is an immense circle of stones that taxes the ingenuity and strength of several generations of Ratharryn men. The result, of course, is Stonehenge, which Cornwell recreates in this vivid novel, along with the imagined world in which it was constructed.

Publisher's Note

Discover a time of ritual and sacrifice...A land steeped in blood and glory...A family of brothers whose deadly rivalries and glorious ambitionswill forever mark the world.In this rousing epic, Bernard Cornwell has created the Most compelling and powerful human drama of its kind since Ken Follett's The Pillars of the Earth and Edward Rutherford's Sarum.



Industry Reviews
"Whatever the period, count on Cornwell to serve up the details on which verisimilitude thrives. Lots of that here, maybe more than required, but it's a sturdy story, too--an ancient sibling rivalry full of enough blood and thunder to hold anyone's interest."
Adler

"Combining informed conjecture with the story of a savage family whose treachery makes the Sopranos look tame by comparison, Bernard Cornwell has written a diverting novel that imagines the history behind Stonehenge....In the end, the book is more likely to appeal to fans of J.R.R. Tolkein than of David Macaulay."
New York Times Book Review - Michael Porter (10/08/2000)
