First eight chapters of the first volume of a best-selling European series, un-put-downable since 1946!

Imprisoned in the city of Carthage, the Median envoy — an elderly Zoroastrian priest — slips his jailers and flees for the shores of Egypt, to continue his mission. He is pursued by the Carthaginian navy, her secret agents and assassins sent to stop him from fulfilling his mission. His only defenses are his guile and his teenage Greek apprentice.

Continuously in print since 1946, this tale has been compared to Treasure Island and The Three Musketeers for its style and plot and historical accuracy. Now for the first time in English.

Find out what has delighted Europeans for three generations. The first eight chapters of the first volume in the series — Out of the Lion's Maw.
