Colossus is an epic tale of alternative history, set against the brutal, ancient worlds of Babylon, Carthage and Sicily.
323 BC and Alexander has survived every effort to kill him. Restless, ruthless, he wonders which world to conquer next. He has a powerful new weapon – the war elephants he brought back with him from India. The largest and fiercest is Colossus.
As captain of the elephants, Gajendra is deeply loyal to Alexander, the great soldier who plucked him from obscurity. He begins a meteoric rise through the ranks of the Macedonian army, protected by the fiercely devoted Colossus. But the elephant is far more than a brute weapon of war, and the bond he forms with Gajendra ultimately threatens the ambition of the world’s greatest general.
Just as all he has dreamed of is within his grasp, Gajendra faces a terrible choice. Betray his beloved general or sell his soul.”
