ABOUT THIS NOVEL
This novel is a sequel to my earlier novel NAUCA – DAUGHTER OF THE STEPPES and follows the adventures and travels of Nauca, a young Sarmatian woman who was born north of the Sea of Azov, in the Caucasus, in 80 B.C.E. (Before the Common Era). Living first as a nomad with her family in the plains and forests east of the Borysthene (Dniepr) River, Nauca lost her family to a band of robbers at the age of twelve but got her revenge by hunting and killing those robbers before deciding to go to the Greek commercial outpost of Tanais, situated on the delta of the Tanais (Don) River. There, she was helped and supported by a Greek merchant and hunted and trapped furs for him during periodical expeditions out of Tanais. Seeing caravans from the distant East coming to and going from Tanais, Nauca decided to take to the roads with a caravan, in order to see more of the World. Going with her first caravan to the city of Samarkand, Nauca then joined another caravan and travelled all the way to China before returning to Samarkand. Now, Nauca is ready to travel again, this time to India and the city of Pataliputra.
