In his rough-rider style, H. Rider Haggard delivers the saga of Hubert of Hastings, discovered on a rotting parchment in a Peruvian tomb. Hubert is a humble fisherman descended from Viking conquerors. As the French invade England, Hubert is cast to his fate. His fortunes might swell with love, strength, and wealth, but Hubert is forced from his homeland. The son of Vikings forges his destiny in an ancient and opulent civilization ─ the Incas of Peru ─ and the outcast seeks solace in the arms of a forbidden lover.
