Description - Burdens of the Dead by Diamond Comic Distributors, Inc.

In an alternate 15th century where magic still is part of life, the Holy
Roman Empire rules Europe. Constantinople is under siege by the Venetians and
their allies. Hekate, Goddess of Crossroads, presides over the conflict and
carnage as alternate visions of civilization collide. And since Constantinople
is the crossroad city of east and west, and it is here that Italian captain
Benito Valdosta must deal with the powerful magical manifestation of the Weeping
Woman, a disguised Hekate, in order to save his daughter and to destroy the
fleets of the Chernobog assembling in the Black Sea before they can cut into the
soft underbelly of Europe. With land battle, naval action, cunning
assassinations, and heartbreak aplenty — not to mention the ongoing
conflict between Lord of the Dead Aidonus and Benito for the love of a woman,
civilization is at the crossroads and choices must be made that will bring
victory and freedom for centuries to come — or a new Dark Age!
Burdens of the Dead is the sequel to Much Fall of Blood, Book
4 in the Heirs of Alexandria series.
