Athanor, Celtic guardian of the sacred Alisanos Mountains, revered by his people and in love with Anna, believed he was living in peace under the protection of the old gods. But one night changed everything: the sanctuary was desecrated, Anna — the light of his life — was taken from him, and the Thunder Eagle, divine messenger of the gods, vanished — stolen by mysterious strangers from distant lands.
Athanor failed in his sacred duty. Everything that gave meaning to his life has shattered. Now, the wrath of the gods is stirring. His people — and perhaps the balance of the world itself — are at risk.
Thus begins a relentless pursuit that will lead Athanor and his companions across the stormy waters of the Mediterranean, to the very edge of the ancient Greek world.
Who are these strangers? Why did they take the Thunder Eagle? From the haunted forests of Thrace to the wild steppes of Cimmeria and Scythia, how far will this incredible odyssey take them?
One thing is certain: in his quest for vengeance and redemption, Athanor will face far more than mythological beasts and fickle gods…
This is no mere tale of blood and battle. It is an epic where action meets introspection, where mythology speaks with fate, where the visible is never the only voice. Some fights are won with a sword. Others demand that we listen to what whispers in the silence of the world…
What you’ll find in this novel:
✓ A unique, lyrical, and immersive style, voiced by Smérix, an old Celtic shaman and storyteller from a forgotten era.
✓ A multi-layered adventure where epic intensity coexists with emotional depth and philosophical reflection.

And you, spirit traveler… will you dare to enter the legend of the Thunder Eagle?
