Reis saam na eerste-eeuse Rome en ontdek hoekom hierdie klassieke reeks miljoene lesers oor die wêreld heen geïnspireer het. Die drie boeke in die Merk van die Leeu-reeks word as ’n spesiale geskenkstel aangebied.

’n Stem in die wind is die eerste boek in die reeks. Dit vertel die verhaal van Hadassa, ’n jong Joodse meisie wat as slaaf weggevoer is, maar steeds vashou aan haar geloof in God. Al voel sy verskeur deur haar liefde vir ’n aantreklike jong edelman, word Hadassa ’n baken van hoop en lig te midde van die duisternis en verval rondom haar.

’n Eggo in die duisternis vertel die verhaal van Markus, ’n welgestelde Romeinse edelman. Diep geraak deur Hadassa se opregte geloof, begin hy wonder of daar nie méér in die lewe is nie. In sy soeke na betekenis en geloof, word hy gelei deur ’n sagte fluistering uit die verlede wat hom kan bevry van die duisternis in sy siel.

Die trilogie sluit af met So seker as wat die dag breek. Dit vertel die verhaal van Atretes, ’n Germaanse stamleier wat sy vryheid as gladiator verdien het. Atretes wil saam met sy babaseun teruggaan na Germanië, maar wat van Rispa, die gelowige weduwee wat sedert sy geboorte vir die seun gesorg het?

'There he lay looking as if youth had been half-renewed, for the white hair and moustache were changed to dark iron-grey, the cheeks were fuller, and the white skin seemed ruby-red underneath; the mouth was redder than ever, for on the lips were gouts of fresh blood, which trickled from the corners of the mouth and ran over the chin and neck. Even the deep, burning eyes seemed set amongst the swollen flesh, for the lids and pouches underneath were bloated. It seemed as if the whole awful creature were simply gorged with blood; he lay like a filthy leech, exhausted with his repletion.'

Thus Bram Stoker, one of the greatest exponents of the supernatural narrative, describes the demonic subject of his chilling masterpiece Dracula, a truly iconic and unsettling tale of vampirism.

Bastian Bredenkamp is dead. But even the dead have secrets. From the grave, Bastian weaves together the extraordinary tale of his life.

When Khadeejathree comes to work for the family, Bastian is introduced to her daughter Rashieda, and a world he’d been sheltered from. But to love Rashieda means telling his secret: he is not who he appears to be.
