The Ships of Minos 4 - The Ships of Minos, #4

A European best-selling historical adventure series since 1972, finally in English. Three-and-a-half thousand years ago, at the height of the Bronze Age, a Minoan ship sails for the mythical Sea of Gloom in search of the source of amber. To reach it, the explorers must sail up and down mighty rivers, navigate cataracts, cross great swamps, live through the death of leaves and the time of water turned to stone, and fight off savage barbarians and ravenous beasts.
Until, one day...one by one they grew silent, some of them with arms stretched forth, others with fists tightly clenched and pressed upon their foreheads. And many of them were convinced-though it could have been only a distant white cloud-that through their tearful eyes they perceived the white visage of Poseidon himself, the one and only Lord of the Seas. The classic bronze saga continues. Open the double doors of the horizon, unlock its bronze bolts: Pick up your copy today!
