The second novel in David Gemmell's bestselling Troy trilogy. Interlacing myth and history, and high adventure, this is epic storytelling at its very best. The war of Troy is looming, and all the kings of the Great Green are gathering, friends and enemies, each with their own dark plans of conquest and plunder. Into this maelstrom of treachery and deceit come three travellers; Piria, a runaway priestess nursing a terrible secret, Kalliades, a warrior with a legendary sword, and Banokles who will carve his own legend in the battles to come. Shiled of thunder takes the reader back into the glories and tragedies of Bronze Age Greece, reuniting the characters from Lord of the silver bow; the dread Helikaon and his great love, the fiery Andromache, the mighty Hektor and the fabled storyteller, Odysseus.

Pat Kenzie riceve da una nota psichiatra l'incarico di proteggere il figlio perseguitato da minacce e messaggi anonimi. Sembra un caso di facile soluzione. È l'inizio di un incubo. Una serie di terrificanti omicidi, apparentemente senza legame, lo riporta di prepotenza nel passato, agli anni dell'adolescenza, vissuti nel quartiere degradato di Dorchester a Boston. Le vittime, su cui l'assassino ha infierito orribilmente, crocifiggendole e mutilandole, sono tutte persone che Pat Kenzie ha conosciuto. Nel corso di una frenetica caccia all'uomo, condotta anche con l'aiuto di Angie Gennaro e del fedele Bubba Rogowski, Pat si rende conto che il prossimo bersaglio potrebbe essere lui...

An electrifying thriller from the bestselling author of HARD LANDING.
