hmm.... set in ancient times where the sun god and moon god were still worshipped, and human sacrifices were still rampant,it tells the tale of rathrynn, ( the current location of stonehenge ) and its surrounding localites, the feuds and wars between the tribes, and how the temple dedicated to the sun god was built, the ruins of which make the stonehenge of today.
we see the daily lives of the warriors, priests, chieftains and builders, through the eyes of saban, a son of a chieftain, brother to a cripple who goes on to become a priest, and also a warrior brother who eventually murders his father for the sake of being chief. saban grows up, passes the rites of manhood, almost gets married but ends up a slave, and is then freed, to become a builder. the story goes through his life and shows how it ends. his loves, his struggles, hopes and dreams, and how he accomplishes the monumental task of building the great sun temple.
