Together with its companion sequel, The Blood Star , it tells the history of Tiglath Ashur, the fictional half brother of Esarhaddon , a historical king of Assyria . The novels are notable for a consistently high moral tone and for the feeling of immediacy present in the many vignettes that offer pictures of everyday life and, not incidentally, a kind of travelogue of ancient Mesopotamia and the Mediterranean . In this first chapter of the Tiglath Ashur s story, the author narrates the youth of the main character until the age of twenty five. His love for Esharhamat, the woman who, according to a prophecy, will generate a great monarch Ashurbanipal . But only the king could marry Esharhamat, and the gods prefer his brother Esarhaddon to get the crown. With descriptions of many battles and many ancient peoples, this book talks about wars, hate, revenge and overall, love.

  1. Ba`al Shamîm

    Ba al Sham m Lord of Heaven is a northwest Semitic god or a title applied to different gods at different places or times found in various ancient Middle eastern inscriptions. The title is sometimes applied to Hadad who is also often titled just Baal Ba al but often refers to a deity differentiated from him. The earliest known occurrence of this title as Ba l Sham m is in a treaty of the 14th century BC between Suppiluliumas I king of the Hittites and Niqmadu II, king of Ugarit . One might take this to be another name for Ba al Hadad and again when the name appears in a Phoenician inscription by King Ye imilk of Byblos . But other texts make a distinction between the two. In the treaty of 677 BC between King Esarhaddon of Assyria and King Baal I Ba al I of Tyre Lebanon Tyre a curse is laid against King Ba al if he breaks the treaty, reading in part blockquote May Baal sameme, Baal malage, and Baal saphon raise an evil wind against your ships, to undo their moorings, tear out their mooring pole, may a strong wave sink them in the sea, a violent tide . . . against you. blockquote The god Baal malage is otherwise unexplained, Baal saphon here and elsewhere seem to be Ba al Hadad whose home is on Mount aphon in the Ugaritic texts. But interpreters disagree as to whether theses are here three separate gods or three aspects of the same god, a god who causes stormy weather on the sea. In any case inscriptions show the cult of Ba al Sham m continued in Tyre from Esarhaddon s day until towards the end of the 1st millennium BC . In Nabatean texts in Greek Ba al Sham m is regularly equated with Zeus Helios , that Zeus as a sun god. Sanchuniathon supports this blockquote ... and that when droughts occurred, they stretched out their hands to heaven towards the sun for him alone he says they regarded as god the lord of heaven, calling him Beelsamen, which is in the Phoenician language lord of heaven, and in Greek Zeus. blockquote Unfortunately it is not clear whether Ba al Sham m ...   more details
