On the following chapter pages, I have showcased some artwork by the wonderful Lebanese artist, Victor Haddad. His work features the history of his homeland and uncannily, some of the paintings of Astoreth, Adonis and (to my mind, Ba'al) fit my story perfectly. All rights belong to Victor Haddad, no infringement intended. Hope you enjoy them as much as I do.
