Rise of the Magi (Priests and Magi, Book 2)

Rise of the Magi
Book 2 of the Priests and Magi quadrilogy.

Shadows stir, and old enemies resurface.

As Cyrus the Great wages war against Babylon, the mastermind behind the Median Magus cabal has returned -- more formidable than before.

Cyrus the Great faces a threat that transcends borders.

This sequel takes place in the Babylon of Belshazzar in the days just preceding its fall to Cyrus the Great.

In a world where loyalties shift like desert sands, secrets hold sway. The fate of empires hangs in the balance, and the magus cabal's resurgence threatens to unravel all that Cyrus has built.

Based on historical events, Rise of the Magi weaves well-developed characters and plot, espionage, ancient gothic mystery elements, intrigue, ambition, and the cost of power, and slow-burn and enemies-to-lovers blended in romance.
