Description:A powerful, atmospheric novel which evokes the vanished world of the Roman Cotswolds of the 360's AD, a mosaic world of sunlight and deep, deep shadows. It tells the story of Saturninus, a soldier with a troubled past who, in a strange dream, sees himself killed by a man called Caelofernus under the full moon which is only four days away. But in that same dream he also glimpses his dead lover, Pascentia, emerging alive from the sea in which she was believed to have drowned in a shipwreck there years before.So he rides through a late spring countryside of great sheep pastures and hawthorn bushes smothered in creamy-white may blossom, intent on finding Caelofernus before the full moon rises -- and all the while wondering if somewhere on the endless roads, trackways and winding paths along which he journeys, he might meet Pascentia.Because, in an age when belief in the gods and goddesses of the old pagan religions is still strong, he has come to suspect that nothing is certain, not even the past. Or those dreams that come out of the past. -- From back cover.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
