Tom Swan and the Last Spartans 1

Fifteenth-century Europe. Tom Swan is not a professional soldier. Hes really a merchant and a scholar looking for remnants of Ancient Greece and Rome temples, graves, pottery, fabulous animals, unicorn horns. But he also has a real talent for ending up in the midst of violence when he didnt mean to. Having used his wits to escape execution, he begins a series of adventures that take him to street duels in Italy, meetings with remarkable men from Leonardo Da Vinci to Vlad Dracula and from the intrigues of the War of the Roses to the fall of Constantinople.
