0 - Default Title
Description
In the year A.D. 228, the Roman Empire, newly emerged from the trauma of a mad emperor's reign, faces new threats from within and without.
In the distant province of Britannia, the family and friends of Lucius Pen Dragon have remained in hiding for over ten years, safe from the henchmen of Rome. But they have been struggling to come to terms with Lucius' death. While most have accepted the loss, his wife and children yet cling to his memory. Grief has torn their family apart.
Having quit the sanctuary of Ynis Wytrin some years before, Adara Pen Dragon has not been heard from or seen by anyone. When her son, Phoebus, sets out in search of his mother, his sister, Calliope, fears that she has lost the remainder of her family.
Though it is widely known that Lucius is dead, Rome remembers the Dragon, his family, and his Sarmatian warriors. Augusta Julia Mamaea, paranoid and worried for the safety of her son, Emperor Alexander Severus, maintains that Lucius Pen Dragon lives. She decides to seek him out and recruit him to protect her imperial son. To that end, she sends a force of Praetorians to Britannia to search for the Dragon, his family, and his men to make them an offer they cannot possibly refuse. Once again they are hunted by Rome.
Can Lucius' family and friends overcome their grief and find the strength to fight Rome one more time? Or will Rome finally succeed in wiping out the Dragon's line once and for all?
Ultimately, survival rests on their faith, forgiveness, love, and the hidden strength found in the hearts of heroes...
The Hearts of Heroes is a story of family, loss and grief and the challenges of finding the strength to carry on when all hope seems lost. It is the seventh book in multi award-winning author and historian Adam Alexander Haviaras' #1 bestselling Eagles and Dragons historical fantasy series.
