In the midst of the Punic Wars, High Priestess Selene of Syracuse discovers an ancient temple hidden in the Sicilian forests?a sacred site with the power to shift the balance between Rome and Carthage forever.

When Selene ventures into the mysterious temple alongside a skeptical philosopher, a battle-hardened soldier, and a humble shepherd, they encounter a force beyond mortal understanding. Inside, they discover the temple exists at the boundary between three realms: matter, energy, and consciousness?and its power could end the bloody conflict that has raged across the Mediterranean for generations.

But they aren't alone in their quest. Roman general Scipio Africanus and Carthaginian commander Hanno race to claim the temple's power for their empires, while a secretive brotherhood with knowledge of celestial forces seeks to harness it for their own ambitions.

As boundaries between worlds thin and supernatural phenomena spread throughout the region, Selene and her companions must prevent the temple's power from being misused. Their journey will challenge everything they believe about gods and mortals, faith and reason, duty and desire.

In a story that blends historically authentic ancient warfare with mystical revelation, THE TEMPLE OF THE GODS explores whether true power lies in dominance or balance?and whether enemies can find wisdom in each other's truths before it's too late.

Perfect for fans of Conn Iggulden, Steven Saylor, and Simon Scarrow, this epic tale of war, philosophy, and forbidden knowledge will captivate readers who crave richly detailed historical fiction with a supernatural twist.
