Wind from the Hospitable Sea (Fleeing Carthage) - 6705

A European action-adventure best-seller, never once out of print for 80 years, now for the first time in English. Greece 562 BC. For insolvent debtors, the price of bankruptcy is slavery. When his mother and siblings are seized for unpaid debts, little Diossos must run to fetch help. He must cross mountains, forests, and stormy seas, brave wild animals, slave catchers, pirates, and... the law. He has one month to achieve his quest, but only days to grow up. The Heroes of Out of the Lion’s Maw return for an encore in this stand-alone tale of high adventure, full of white-knuckle twists and turns, engaging characters, and sparkling humor. If you liked The Treasure Island and The Three Musketeers, you will love this. Join the adventure. Pick up your copy today.
