Beschreibung
As an empire burns, he will rise from the ashes.

Sparrow, the Sunday Times bestselling historical epic by James Hynes, is the incredibly moving story of one boy's journey to freedom in the harsh world of the Roman Empire.

A small town at the edge of a dying empire.
A slave boy raised in a brothel, with no known identity or origin.

Sparrow's world consists of a kitchen and herb-scented garden, a loud and dangerous tavern, and the mysterious upstairs where the wolves, the women who have shaped his world, conduct their business. Where freedom is only for a privileged few, Sparrow's life is hard-edged and violent.

But change is coming.

The world outside his garden is about to be reshaped, and as an empire crumbles, murder and mayhem will come to Sparrow's door. As the only family he's ever known scatters, will Sparrow fall - or fly?
