In the First Punic War, the Roman legions defeated and

humiliated Carthage, their only serious rival for power in the Mediterranean.

Now a brilliant young Carthaginian general, called Hannibal, is out for revenge.

Caught up in the maelstrom are two young boys, Hanno, the son of a distinguished

soldier and confidant of Hannibal, and Quintus, son of a Roman equestrian and

landowner. A disastrous adventure will see Hanno sold into slavery and bought by

Quintus' father. Although an unexpected friendship springs up between the two

boys - and with Quintus' sister, Aurelia - the fortunes of the two warring

empires once again separates them. They find themselves on opposite sides of the

conflict and an alliance forged through slavery will be played out to its

stunning conclusion in battle.
