'Parthian Dawn' is the second volume of the adventures of Pacorus
the Parthian and his companions - the fierce and proud Gallia, the
ex-Roman centurion Domitus, the scout Byrd and the sorceress Dobbai
- as they battle for their lives against the backdrop of the clash
between the ancient world's two greatest empires. After three years
fighting by the side of Spartacus, Pacorus and his followers have
escaped from Italy in the aftermath of the defeat of the slave
rebellion. Made a king by the ruler of the Parthian Empire on his
return, he has married his beloved Gallia and made the city of Dura
Europos on the banks of the Euphrates his home. But his new kingdom
is seething with discontent and surrounded by hostile desert nomads
who are the sworn enemies of the Parthians. The aged King of Kings,
the man who has united the Parthians for decades, then dies to cast
a shadow of uncertainty over the empire, which erupts into
full-scale civil war as one of the empire's most powerful men,
Narses, attempts to seize the high crown by force. Pacorus is
forced to fight both Narses and his scheming ally, Prince
Mithridates, to preserve the realm and his own crown. And then the
Romans, taking advantage of Parthia's internal troubles, launch
their own invasion of the empire. Will Pacorus and indeed the
Parthian Empire survive the conflict that engulfs them on all
sides?

When Rome transgresses upon his father's domain that lays between
the Tigris and Euphrates rivers, Pacorus, a prince of the Parthian
Empire, is sent to exact revenge. After a string of victories
Pacorus and his men are captured in Cappadocia, clapped in chains
and sent to Italy to live out the rest of their days as slaves. But
fate intervenes and Pacorus and his companions are saved from a
living hell by a renegade gladiator named Spartacus. In gratitude,
Pacorus agrees to help Spartacus build his army as Rome musters its
legions to crush the slave uprising. And so begins an epic
adventure of glory and savagery played out across the length and
breadth of Italy, as Spartacus defeats the armies of Rome and
Pacorus leads his horsemen to victory after victory. But will
Pacorous and the slave army escape from Italy, and will he win the
love of the fierce and proud Gallia before the most powerful man in
Rome, Marcus Licinius Crassus, takes the field against Spartacus?
