Stonehenge

Synopsis:

One summer's day a stranger carrying great wealth in gold coins comes to the settlement. He is killed by one of the chief's sons in the old temple. The mysterious treasure, assumed by some to be a gift from the gods, causes great dissension within the tribe. Three brothers perceive it in a different way but they share one dream. Lengar, the warrior, knows it can fuel his ambition to be a great ruler and take power for his tribe. The second son has the vision to see that the building of a vast temple will create a place for the gods but also confirm the power of the people who build it. But it is the third son, the man of peace, the lover of the sun bride, who will be the creator and the master-builder of the Temple of Shadows.

Discover a time of ritual and sacrifice… A land steeped in blood and glory… A family of brothers whose deadly rivalries and glorious ambitions will forever mark the world. In this rousing epic, Bernard Cornwell has created the most compelling and powerful human drama of its kind since Ken Follett's The Pillars of the Earth and Edward Rutherford's Sarum.
