Savage Birthright

Savage Birthright is the plight of Princes, usurpers, and those who inherit the burdens of powerful fathers.

When extortion draws Alerio Sisera to an Illyrian capital, the Legion officer finds an old adversary who needs his help, a poison kiss from a masked woman during a street festival, and a city full of people who want him dead.

From a Prince who needs to prepare for the trials of ascension, to a Priestess who wants to be Queen, Savage Birthright throws Battle Commander Alerio Sisera into a nest of vipers with no way out.

Welcome to 252 B.C.

The Clay Warrior Stories are deeply researched historical fiction combined with high adventure. There are no dragons, wizards, or magic spells. Just blades and men skilled in the art of war, living in a time when empires clashed. An era when death rode on the edge of sharp steel and only the lucky or the good walked away from a fight.
