The Scarlet Fig: Or, Slowly Through a Land of Stone, Book Three of the Vergil Magus Series (Prologue Fantasy)
The Last Manuscript of a Master
It began with an accident, as if Fate had a plan for Vergil Magus . . .
After his trials in the Very Rich City of Averno but before his crowning achievement of a certain magic mirror, the great sorcerer and alchemist finds himself on a journey nothing short of epic. Sure he is slated for death in Rome, Vergil seeks safety in the far reaches of the Empire-and finds a world teeming with wonders and magical oddities.
The €œunhistoric€ sea adventure is a deft mix of fantastic fact and fable, showcasing the author€s keen attention to the often forgotten connections between them.
