Description

In the late 16th century, young British seaman adventurer Andrew Battell is abducted by Portuguese pirates while seeking treasure off the coast of Brazil. shipped in chains to the steamy slave-trading colony of Angola, he is seduced and betrayed by a passionate woman, tortured in Angola's foulest dungeons, then finally condemned to death. Escaping into the African interior, Battell begins the most frightening adventure of his life -- a nightmare journey into a strange and exotic world, where, to survive, he rises to become trusted blood brother to the barbaric and mysterious warrior-king called the Lord of Darkness.
