Forging the Blade, a New Novel About the Goths
#8
Hi Alanus, is it available as a kindle or ebook. I am surprised that you haven't written one about the Alans. You seem knowledgeable about their culture and military skills. Maybe the Alans that fought at Chalons with Aetius. I read on another thread that they were put into the centre of the Roman lines because Aetius didn't trust their leader. But with Alans, Visigoths and Romans against Huns and allies cavalry must have played some part as except for the Romans, the majority of combatants seem mostly horsemen and it would be good to have an Alan protagonist. And you can throw in some background about Wusun history sort of "Educate and Entertain.". Or something about the taifales in Britain.
Regards
