An ordinary young woman studying history and languages.
An extraordinary party for Bitcoin millionaires, steeped in a heady atmosphere of tequila and dreams of New Phoenicia, a world of wealth and trade beyond borders and controls.
Then she awakes in ancient Carthage, millennia before her time.
As she travels with the great Phoenician general Hannibal on his epic journey across the Alps to attack the heart of Rome itself, Angela wrestles with the questions that might define or end her life. Is any of this real, or is it all just a dream or worse, a madness she cannot escape? If it is real, can she change history, or will the attempt destroy her? And if she can change history: should she?
Step by step, Angela pushes the bounds of the history she knows into a future she can no longer see, until finally she is faced with her greatest decision. Can the mighty militaristic power of Rome be crushed? Can the rule of the ancient world be blasted onto a new course, a new history in which the legions of Rome are replaced by the traders of Carthage? And if it can, what price will the world pay, and is it a price her own soul can afford?
This exciting novel blends science fiction, alternative history and a hint of fantasy into a remarkable epic which will leave you thinking long after you have turned the last page.
