Gods, Kings & Slaves ebok

War is coming...

Peninsular India, fourteenth century. The Pandyan empire is at its

peak, its enemies subdued and its people at peace. Having left behind

his step-brother Sundar in the race to the throne, Crown Prince Veera

Pandyan is set to rule from Madurai, reputed to be the richest city in

the subcontinent. But invisible fractures within the kingdom threaten

to destroy it, and a new enemy approaches, swifter than anyone can

imagine.

In Delhi, Sultan Alauddin Khilji’s trusted general, the eunuch Malik

Kafur, has trained his eyes on the distant south, fabled for its riches.

A slave captured by the Khiljis, Kafur is renowned for his ambition

and cunning. None, not even the mighty Mongols, have defeated him

– no empire can withstand the trail of destruction he leaves in his

wake. And all he wants is to see Madurai on its knees, its wealth

pillaged, its temples destroyed.

As an ancient city combusts in flames of treachery, bloodlust and

revenge, brother will battle brother, ambition will triumph over love,

slaves will rise to rule, cities will be razed to dust, and the victor will

be immortalized in history...
