A forgotten legend. A broken destiny. An epic quest to the farthest reaches of ancient myths and forgotten gods.
"Athanor: The Legend of the Thunder Eagle is a mythological and philosophical saga, narrated by an old Celtic shaman from the 7th century BC. Through his voice-born of wind, fire, and memory-we are drawn into an initiatory journey where history and myth intertwine, and where the invisible shapes the fate of mortals..."
652 BC, in the Celtic lands of the Arverni. Athanor, guardian of the sacred mountains of Alisanos, lived in peace, honored by his people and deeply loved by Anna, his twin flame.
But one fateful night, everything that gave his life meaning was torn away.
Athanor failed in his duty. As the sanctuary he was meant to protect is desecrated by strangers from distant lands, Anna vanishes under tragic circumstances. And in the chaos, the ultimate sacrilege occurs: a mythical creature, the Thunder Eagle, whose existence was unknown even to his people is stolen.
Now, only one thing remains within his soul: the echo of a love greater than death... and greater than the gods themselves.
Haunted by loss, consumed by guilt, Athanor embarks on a perilous quest seeking vengeance, but also redemption. His odyssey will lead him far beyond the known world, across sacred lands and into forgotten realms, where he will face threats more terrifying than anything he could have imagined... Even more fearsome than the demons that gnaw at his heart.
What readers are saying:
"An initiatory journey that invites us to reflect on our own path, our wounds, and the rebirths still possible. Closing this book, one feels transformed as if passing through fire, leaving behind what no longer serves to welcome something new. A luminous novel, to read, to reread, and above all to live. A true adventure for lovers of historical and epic fantasy."

Step into this mythological and historical fantasy novel, where the ancient gods are never far, and the line between memory and prophecy blurs. You'll feel the fury of battles, the torment of a soul seeking meaning, and perhaps... in the silence of the world... the voice of the old gods.
"Everything that is, everything around us, has meaning... But it is yours to discover." - Smérix, Celtic shaman of the Arverni, 7th century BC
