"A mighty entertainment--and a humbling feat."
Reseña del editor
THE EVENING OF THE WORLD is set in the period of the barbarian invasions. Its hero is a young Roman nobleman named Marcus. He undergoes extraordinary experiences as he searches for meaning and stability in a twilight world where the old gods are dead or dying, but their mysteries still attract, and the new religion is threatened by new barbarisms. Marcus¿s journeys take him over the empire, from Italy to Greece and Byzantium, to the camp of Alaric the Goth and the wastes of the northern forests, from a Christian monastery to the horde of Attila the Hun. His is a world where everything is possible and nothing solid, a world that is full of danger and mystery, of love and terror, of simple faith and abstruse philosophy, of cruelty, strange perversions, treachery and undaunted courage.

Review A mighty entertainment-and a humbling feat. --The Literary ReviewThis is a book that can be recommended to anyone who thinks that the historical novel is moribund. --The Sunday Times From the Publisher The Dark Ages, a period of barbarian invasions. Marcus, a young Roman nobleman, is reputed by legend to be the son of the Archangel Michael-but religion is not the answer to the questions of identity and destiny that torment him. Leaving behind the savagery and splendor of the Roman Empire, Marcus embarks on a search for meaning and stability in a world whose days, he senses, are numbered. His quest spans the Roman Empire, from Italy to Greece and the fabulous decadence of Byzantium. Compelling, intelligent, and skillfully plotted,The Evening of the World will have readers eagerly awaiting the second book in this sweeping trilogy. Among Allan Massies many novels is his best-selling Emperors Quintet-Augustus, Tiberius, Caesar, Antony, andNeros Heirs. Bestandsnummer des Verkäufers SONG0753813106
