A Chat with Bill King

THE SHORT VERSION

Bill King introduces Angel of Fire and the Guardsmen whose changing relationship with Macharius will carry the trilogy. He models the general’s early brilliance and personal courage on Alexander, then plans to show a darker and more ruthless figure as the crusade progresses. Rather than attempt every campaign, the three books select its beginning, height and bitter collapse, combining ordinary soldiers’ viewpoints with a leader who reshapes Imperial history.
