"Lhugg is God of the sun who protects our king in battle, & has within his magical powers the ability to guide him in all decisions. Lhugg has the power to make music from the wind & the animals of the forests." In the year A.D. 83, the Roman General Agricola marches north into the Caledonian Highlands to subdue the Cruithne (Picts of ancient Scotland) tribes before turning his full attention on the riches of Ireland. At a place called Mons Graupius, he is met by Calgacus & 30,000 of his mountain Highlanders. After a bloody battle, the native clans vanish into the night. Later, among other captives, a naked & beguiling native girl is taken prisoner & forced to serve as Agricola's mistress. Always there is the dangerous & calculating Urbicus with his own ambitions & the child born into servitude whom he hates. After some two decades, the ultimate conquest of Ireland still depends on the subjugation of the stubborn Caledonian tribes & once again the infamous Ninth Legion marches north, bent on final genocide in order to serve its ultimate purpose. MONS GRAUPIUS is a fast-paced, easy-reading adventure, vibrating with history. ISBN: 0-9634992-1-1. Cover price $24.00. 600 pp HC. Sale price $18.00.
