Publisher Description
Four thousand years ago, a stranger's death and his ominous "gift" of gold precipitates the building of what will become known as one of mankind's most remarkable achievements.
Stonehenge catapults us into a powerful and vibrant world of ritual and sacrifice at once timeless and wholly original. This is an epic tale of patricide, betrayal, and murder; of brotherly rivalry; and of the never-ending quest for power, wealth, and spiritual fulfillment.
Three brothers, rivals, are uneasily united in their quest to create a temple to their gods. Cornwell's re-creation of civilization as it might have been in 2000 B.C. amplifies the mystery of his subject and makes the world of Stonehenge come alive as never before.

Well read, well written! A MASTERPIECE! This intriguing tale took me right back through time. Characters are so vivid and alive! The village life, religions, beliefs, superstitions all on target. A deep story line gives a perfect possibility and realistic explanation into Stonehenge’s creation. Worth every penny! Thanks Bernard Cornwell!!!
