Judea, 66 AD. A Roman legion suffers a smashing and catastrophic
defeat at the hands of an angry band of Hebrews armed with only
slings and spears. Knowing Emperor Nero's revenge will be swift and
merciless, they must decide how to defend their land against the
Roman invasion. Caught up in the tumult is the mason Judah,
inadvertent hero of Beth Horon, who now finds himself rubbing
shoulders with priests, revolutionaries, generals, and nobles,
drafted to help defend the land of Galilee. Denied the chance to
marry where he will, he turns all his energy into defending the
beseiged city of Jotapata. But with a general suffering delusions
of grandeur, friends falling each day, and the Roman menace at the
walls, Judah must brave a nightmare to save those he loves and
preserve his honor. First book of the Colossus series.
