From Sumer and Babylon-the cradle of civilization; the lands between two rivers that birthed writing and drowned humanity with a deluge of myths from which organized religions sprouted.Mesopotamia, 2300 BCSargon is reveling in a casual banquet, days before he is to be crowned king of kings, when the court jester recites a song that is fiercely denounced as blasphemous by a priest; and a gory scene visits the cheerful feast.It is what prompted a chain of cruel fates to chase a host of lives: from priests to heretics, a wise school master, nobles and slaves, a princess, one thriving merchant, a struggling boatman, sculptors and a serial killer in a love triangle ... all take their place in a murky world where innocence and evil collide, love begets vengeance, and peace is best served by slaughter.A few will endure the assaults of despair, while others succumb to the whims of the gods, who, seemingly in a quest to satisfy an insatiable lust for blood, had gifted the humans with fertile minds for the sole purpose of enhancing a savagery far more amusing in its gore than that of the wildest beasts. Warning: Followers of any Abrahamic faith are sincerely and strongly advised to avoid reading this work of fiction. Also, the novel contains themes of graphic violence, sexual abuse, misogynist attitudes, among other offensive traits that were undoubtedly more pervasive in that early civilization than the present.
