Everything seems at hand for Aníbal…

A novel about an army of many, all different, who fight joined against the powerful Rome, nature forces and unexpected contingencies. All following a man’s flag, and not a land’s one. Three disparate individuals: Leukón, a young Celtiberian who joined the Carthaginians following his love, Alcón, a Saguntian Iberian hound by a past treason guilt, and Tabnit, a Carthaginian officer that hold an unconfessable secret, we’ll fight together.
