The Narrowing Path

di Ian D Bass (Autore)

Ian D Bass, 2026

For nearly a thousand years, the people of Thrace stood as guardians of Christendom, living beneath the shadow of Byzantium's churches, fortresses, and ancient walls. But kingdoms do not always fall in a single battle. Born into a world where faith and empire seemed eternal, Andronikos, son of Leon, grows from a young Byzantine soldier into an old man who witnesses the slow Ottoman conquest of his homeland. As villages empty, churches fall silent, and neighbours abandon the faith to survive, he discovers that the greatest victories are won not by the sword, but by patience, persuasion, and the quiet erosion of hope. Through war, loss, love, and exile, Andronikos struggles to remain faithful as everything he has ever known disappears around him. When the final choice comes—comfort or conviction—he must decide whether the Cross is worth more than the home, land, and life he has spent decades defending. Richly grounded in the history of the late Byzantine Empire and the Ottoman advance into Europe, The Narrowing Path is an epic work of historical fiction about endurance, sacrifice, and the quiet courage of ordinary believers whose names history has forgotten. It is a moving story of faith tested by time, and a reminder that while empires rise and fall, conviction can outlast them all.
