Thousands of years before Rome, the people of ancient Mesopotamia built magnificent cities, developed writing and literature, and inspired the religious beliefs that would later be codified in the Bible. In the midst of this wondrous civilization, Nahor a seemingly minor player: an Amurru outsider in the Sumerian city of Kish working the fields and carrying on a secret love affair with the daughter of a wealthy Akkadian nobleman. When war comes to Kish, he is forced to flee and becomes the leader of a band plundering the ancient treasures of Sumer. Nahor cannot escape political turmoil of Kish, however, and is soon swept up in the rise of the new Akkadian Empire. He finds himself conscripted into an adventure that will determine the new centers of political and spiritual power in the known world.The Tablet of Destinies is a fast-paced adventure, as Nahor and his friends explore ancient tombs, dodge shadowy forces, and navigate political unrest. It is also a speculative work on the connection between the Akkadian Empire and the emergence of Judeo-Christian religion. But at its core it is a universal story about the destructive potential of grand ambitions and the happiness of a simple life.
