Richard Fidler's first book is a revelation - a beautifully written ode to a lost civilization, and a warmly observed father-son adventure far from home. GHOST EMPIRE is a rare treasure of a book - an utterly captivating blend of the historical and the contemporary, realised by a master storyteller. In 2014, Richard Fidler and his son made a journey to Istanbul. Fired by Richard's passion for the rich history of the dazzling Byzantine Empire - centred around the legendary Consantinople - we are swept into some of the most extraordinary tales in history. The clash of civilizations, the fall of empires, the rise of Christianity, revenge, lust, murder. Turbulent stories from the past are brought vividly to life at the same time as a father navigates the unfolding changes in his relationship with his son. This is one of those books. A book that inspires and broadens your understanding of the world, while at the same time reflects your own experiences. A book that stays with you long after you've finished the last page. A book not to be missed.
