The moment he arrives he is accused of murdera murder Rim-Sin committedand he must run for his life.Against the backdrop of Nebuchadnezzars court at its zenith, he and rival sorcerers vie with Beltshazzar, the Jewish upstart, for the kings favor. As Peter scrambles to get back to the twenty-first century he encounters a lovely young woman who has some disturbingly powerful arguments about the God of the Bible.
Peter wont get home until he has fallen from his pride. Fallen from his polytheism. Fallen from Babel.
