Book ID/图书代码： 06400011B44754

English Summary/英文概要： Murderous intrigue brings Aelric - Blake’s engaging, murderous antihero - to Damascus as the triumphant Muslim caliphate sweeps up from Arabia to threaten Constantinople itself. Aelric knows the secrets behind Greek Fire - the flame-throwers that have kept what is left of the once-mighty Roman empire safe until now. And he has very little choice about sharing them with the new rulers. Or so they think ...for Aelric has not lost any of the cunning and courage that so far, have kept him alive.

Chinese Summary/中文概要： 作者Blake詳細描述 —Aelric招致的兇殘陰謀，故事主人公是一位殘忍的非傳統式英雄 – 作為向橫掃阿拉伯半島到直逼君士坦丁堡的穆斯林哈裡發的全面勝利而歡欣鼓舞。 Aelric知道希臘火藥背後的秘密 – 聖火 – 到目前為止，曾經不可一世的羅馬帝國還剩下什麼樣的（軍用武器）噴火器。而他幾乎沒有選擇餘地的去分享他們（穆斯林）的新規則。至少他們是這樣想的…到目前為止，對於 Aelric來說還沒有失去一些聰明的膽量，以確保自己生存下來。(Sandy)
