    About this ebook

    After a few years of peace in Hippolyta’s realm, the Hun were co-operating to develop and protect the trade routes and even the Alani seemed to be honouring the treaty they had with Hippolyta.

    But was there trouble brewing? Ships on the Black Sea were being raided by pirates, and a combined armies of Ostrogoths, Visigoths and Gepids had just inflicted a crushing defeat on the Hun armies to the west of the Danube. Would Hippolyta’s realm be their next target?
