O knihe

At once tender and savage, LOIZOS is the story of a youthful, blind beggar abducted to Crete together with Prince Theseus and twelve other young Athenians,
male and female, to be sacrificed to the feared Bull Fod in Knossos. They survive not only this ordeal but the harrowing journey back to Athens,
encountering physical danger, rivalry, friendship, love and above all a biding team spirit under the leadership of the charismatic Theseus. Enmeshed in the
tale of Loizos, the legend of Theseus and Ariadne is re-told, in which there are no monsters, only human monsters.

By the same author, FAITH, HOPE AND CHRISTOPHER, THE SECRET LIFE is a gripping fictional account of skullduggery in high places built around FAITH, the
first wife of SIR CHRISTOPHER WREN about whom almost nothing is truly known, set against a background of Civil War, Plague, the Great Fire of London and
the building of St. Paul's Cathedral. ISBN 978-1-4343-4174-7.

independent, adventurous and makes enemies. When tragedy strikes he is helped back to health by loyal friends and family. However, the story doesn't end
there... ISBN 978-1-4567-7072-3.
