    "In the Shadow of the Eagle"
    A Napoleonic Adventure

    By isa0005

    "The year is 1809, the Corsican born Napoleon Bonaparte, hero of the République, sits upon the French throne, garbed in Tyrian purple. Surrounded by a coalition of enemies he fights a world war from the Iberian Peninsula to the Italic Alps, the warm deltas of the Nile to the frigid shores of the Danube. The Oesterreich invaded his allies under the shade of olive trees as the English, in a Hispanic union, haunt the French legions in a conflict of cloak and dagger. The Russian bear wakes from its deep winter slumber as the lockstep of Prussin jackboots readies for march. In the land of Pharaohs the Ottoman shamshir stirs as the Persian lion sharpens his claws. And so Emperor Napoleon I Bonaparte goes to war. "

    Alexandre de la Roche was little more then a drunken rake about town before he met spymaster Captain Artemis Chauville. Now, see as the former heir to the fortune of the comte de la Roche as he is plunged into the cloak and dagger, plot and treason that threatens the very foundation of the First French Empire.

    Inspired by the acclaimed modifications for
    Napoleon Total War's
    and
    Mount and Blade Warband's

    TALE OF A MAN
    by Sconderix


    Morrow came by the Roheekan frontier. An alien design plunged into its soil. And from under the Sun emerged One who is not where he is supposed to be.


    This is a small fantasy tale, of a new world and its familiar workings. As an introduction to a planned collection, it is a map with which to explore. As a story of itself, it is the genesis of character from legend.

    Creative writing or other varying works of fiction:
    All Besides I - A novel
    The Anticipators - A novel
