In 1868 Queen Victoria’s British empire was at the height of its power. But one nation challenged British dominion: Ethiopia’s mystical Emperor Theodore had delivered his people from the rule of the Turks, but his heroic arrogance was about to bring the full strength of the British army crashing down on his kingdom. As General Sir Robert Napier led 12,000 troops to the fortress at Magdala, the Emperor prepared for the death he had grown to love. March on Magdala is a brilliant depiction of the war between earthly might and spiritual powers. The London Times called it “a splendid first novel,” and the El Paso Times said it was “historically sound, panoramic, and perfectly executed.”
“... a remarkably interesting novel, one that is at once a romantic adventure, an essay into mysticism, and a vivid presentation of a time that seems much more remote.” - Des Moines Sunday Register
