    About this ebook

    *An Italian bestseller*

    1430 A.D. - Csaba has no memory of his childhood when he is given as a gift by David of Trebizond to
    Constantine XI Palaiologos, the last basileus of the Eastern empire. However, a centuries-old legend is attached to his name, which will lead the emperor to take him with him, making him a pillar of the resistance against the Ottomans. And even when everything will collapse, it will be impossible for him to forget his loyalty
    to the last legacy of Rome's millennial history. He will then begin a peregrination that will lead him to fight alongside
    some of the most important and valiant lords of the last years of the Middle Ages.
    In the hope of bringing back to life an empire born one thousand and five hundred years earlier, and now doomed to darkness.
