What follows is a tale of skirmish and flame, flight and fury, and battle on sea and land.Seeking both the truth of his past and some hope for his future, Octavian encounters generous thieves, pious carpenters, delicate lords, noble cowherds, bedazzled scientists, and murderous rebels - as this astonishing narrative escalates to its startling climax. ungekürzt.
