At almost fifteen winters, he marches beside his father, a defeated leader, in the Roman triumph - a celebration that ends in death. Courage to face the ordeal of sacrifice before the Romans will truly be his man-making. Instead, the gods throw him entirely different challenges. Can Getorix accept friendship with the Roman who spares his life if the cost is his honor? Can he face the realities of the world he lives in, even if the truth is not as he has been taught?Modern readers will relate to the difficulties these two youths from opposing cultures face in reconciling their differing experiences and value systems.
