Description: This gripping historical fiction transports readers back to 1550, immersing them in the tumultuous siege of the fiercely Protestant city of Magdeburg by imperial forces. Against this backdrop, the fates of various characters intertwine. Karl Bitter follows the fortunes of Maria von Gheut, the woman who inspires the uprising's leader, and Andreas Kritzmann, an enigmatic marksman whose uncanny skill becomes the city's last hope. Through their stories and those of others, the novel explores themes of religious freedom, political intrigue, and the true cost of war. The author's meticulous research and vivid storytelling bring 16th-century Germany to life, offering a thrilling and thought-provoking examination of a pivotal moment in European history.
