The Shore of No One : Shepherds of Nothing, God as an Excuse

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Jerusalem, 1100. Four men no one chose meet beneath a wall from which the dead are thrown. Pedro, the Spanish crusader who no longer knows what his sword is for. Abram, the Jewish scribe who wakes with blood on his hands. Mohammed, the limping warrior who obeys no one but himself. And River, who believes in nothing - which is precisely why he is the only man the captain fears.Because in this city there is no holy war anymore. There is an order. And a captain without a name who has discovered that empires are held together not by faith but by obedience: it is enough to bow to something. To anything. The gesture counts, not the conviction.The four flee into the desert with a dying child and a dog no one claimed. Behind them they leave a Jerusalem that was not conquered but organized. Ahead of them rides a pursuer who does not hate - he administers.A novel about the tension between living and obeying, where the antagonist is no creed but the administrative certainty that seduces those too tired to decide. How much order would you accept in exchange for sleeping in peace For readers of Umberto Eco and of historical fiction with a philosophical soul. Artikel-Nr. 9798254894001
