In the Fig Tree's Shade

The Iron Maiden, far-famed thief and knifer extraordinaire, ranges the shadows of a long dead age of wonders, questing the fabled legacy of the living gods of old. At her side is Minotaur, the bronze-headed titan, whose horned shade few men dare to tread upon. Together they face the swords and sorceries of past and present, of men and devils, of wilderness and empire, to gain the rumoured treasure-trove of Gor-Eil the Wanderer, ameer of the gods: a promise of loot so glorious that passing it up would be sin!

Six tales of madcap venturing in a world which recalls the Arabian Nights and the fantasies of the early 20th century, brimming with crimson-brilliant sabre-play, high-hearted romance, night-black villainy, and myriad little lunacies.
