Summary
Colin Falconer: Master of the Atlas
London, 1893. Two former officers of the Royal Artillery are offered a real fortune to go to Morocco and help the Sultan put down a rebellion that has broken out in the south. They were told that they would have a purely advisory role. Harry Delhaise treads a lonely path of self-destruction, while George Marriott must keep his promises. It seems to them that it is the easiest way to make money. However, they are grossly mistaken. They are forced to fight the frost on the Atlas Mountains and survive the journey through the scorching deserts of sub-Saharan Africa. They became victims of fraud and kidnapping and pawns in high-stakes political contests. They meet women who worship cannons as fertility deities and warlords - also witches - who play bloody games of chess with living slaves. There is also the master of Atlas himself, Amastan el Karim. He's keeping a shocking secret that could cost them both their lives – or give one of them a reason to start living again. An epic historical adventure that brings to life the beauty and cruelty of 19th century Morocco, taking the reader from Victorian London to a forgotten world of dilapidated palaces and wild mountain passes.
