About this listen

The thrilling prequel to Ben Kane's Hannibal: Fields of Blood. An exclusive straight-to-digital short story.

Winter 218 BC: In Cisalpine Gaul, a Carthaginian patrol is moving stealthily through thick woodland. It’s led by Hanno, one of Hannibal’s young officers, and his second-in-command, Mutt. Famished and cold, they are making for a town full of the grain that they desperately need. But the local Gauls cannot be trusted; and although defeated, the Romans still have patrols in the area. With peril on every side and a deadly ambush ahead, there is no certainty that either Hanno or Mutt will survive....

Half of the reading are rather 'creative' trumpet sounds XD I don't think the book adds anything to the book series, and the volume level varies a lot which makes it cumbersome to listen to in the evening - especially with the imitated horn sounds.

Does not need more sound effects ;)
