The Three Charioteers [Sword-and-Sandal Fantasy]

In a land of meddling gods and palace intrigues, a city shines like a jewel. Shindara, the City of Miracles. There, status at birth determines the course of life. The Magi rule. Commoners obey.  Root has no family name, no friends, no patron. Yet he wants to join the exalted ranks of the royal charioteers. These lucky few are Shindara’s most celebrated warriors, and their privileges are granted only to men of noble lineage. For Root to find a place among them—even as a humble squire—he'll need to impersonate a nobleman. But he'll find out that being a charioteer isn't all feasting and parades. It's promises broken. Thirst in the desert. Knives flashing in the dark. And while he tries to prove his mettle, he can only pray that the past he's left behind will not return to hang him. *************************** The Three Charioteers is a complete work, and chapters will be released on Monday and Friday mornings.
