Lion's Blood: A Novel of
Slavery and Freedom in an Alternate America
by Steven Barnes
In ancient times, Carthage destroyed Rome, Europe remained tribal, and
the New World was colonized by Islam. Now in 1863, bordered by fierce
Azteca to the south and the red men's nations to the west, Bilalistan is
a vast, rich land of mosques, kraals, and Moorish castles. The most
glorious estate is magnificent in luxury and tempestuous love, while
white slaves work the land - slaved like young Aidan O'Dere.
