Experience the gritty and dangerous world of Pangaea in Nicholas Prata's masterful novel, Kerebos and its climactic companion, Dream of Fire.
With the power of Korenthis in eclipse, the wastes of Pangaea are terrorized by the raw, merciless might of the Black Legion. All fear them. None dare resist them. They coerce fealty, exact harsh tribute, and leave charred destruction in their path. To keep up their strength, they forcibly recruit the biggest, fastest, sturdiest young men and brutally mold them into heartless killers. All Pangaea longs for the day when the power of the accursed Legion is finally broken.
In abject despair over an unforgivable crime and outcast from society, farmer's son Livios Rapax falls into the hands of the notorious Black Legion. As he fights to stay alive and to protect those he loves from the madness around him, Kerebos rises ever higher in the ranks. But as he compromises between the Legionaries' depravity and his own conscience, his soul is pushed deeper and deeper into an earthly damnation.
In Nicholas Prata's crisp, polished prose, Kerebos unfolds with an epic sweep, following complex, fascinating characters through amazingly vivid battle scenes. Through the exciting and emotionally-charged story of one man's trials and temptations emerges a powerful and thought-provoking study of the seductive nature of evil.
