Summary | Crispin is a master mosaicist, and lives only for his arcane craft after losing his wife and daughters to the plague. But a summons from the emperor to Sarantium, the most magnificent place in the world, is difficult to resist. Before Crispin can reach the capital, he must pass through a land of pagan ritual and mysterious danger. Marked by a brush with the supernatural and bound by a promise made to another monarch, Crispin's arrival at the imperial court will not be a quiet one. Sailing to Sarantium is a gripping tale of one man's journey to rebuild his life amid the power and grandeur of a remarkable civilization. |
