The Crescent: Victory Over Adversity

By Cynthia Vespia

Two goals. One victor. Put a sword in her hand and see what she can do

In a violent time where respect was taken at the tip of a sword, and gladiators were the rockstars of their era, two women will stake their claim in a sport of death dominated by men to fulfill their respective destinies.

Nadja the slave girl, as sensuous as she is savage, captured and forced into training to become a gladiator. She fights hard and well, intent on attaining a long sought freedom. Liza, the Queen, as passionate as she is powerful, married into royalty but her adventurous spirit leads her down the path of the gladiator. Mindful of her husband, the King she shields her identity and fights in secrecy.

They are a parallel of ability and a paradox of style...who shall be victorious?

If you like Gladiator and Spartacus, or you enjoy reading medieval historical fiction, this book is for you.
