Summary:

1237 BC: It is an age of panic. The great empires are in dsarray - ravaged by endless drought, shaken by ferocious earthquakes, and starved of precious tin. Some say the Gods have abandoned mankind. When Tudha ascends the HIttite throne, the burdens of stabilising the realm falls upon his shoulders. Despite his valiant endeavors, things continue to disintegrate; allies become foes, lethal plots arise, and enemy battle horns echo across Hittite lands. Yet this is nothing compared to the colossal, insidious shadow emerging from the west. Crawling unseen towards Tudha's collapsing Hittite world comes a force unlike any ever witnessed; an immesurable swarm of outlanders, driven by the cruel whip of nature, spreading fire and destruction: the Sea Peoples -- back cover.
