Soon he must return to civilization to reclaim his birthright and his father’s honor, but the city of his birth has changed. Now, he must confront the greatest military power the world has even known--the Roman legions of Julius Ceasar. This is the story of Vercingetorix, Druid King of Gaul.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003csmall\u003eProduct image is for illustration purposes only and may not be an exact representation of the product offered for sale.\u003c\/small\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Knopf Doubleday Publishing Group, 2004","offers":[{"title":"The Druid King \/ Very Good","offer_id":52780971098404,"sku":"9780375724961VG","price":7.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0714\/9951\/4148\/files\/public_78b0f0f1-dd12-4ea4-9acc-b0da3091e753.jpg?v=1781792763","url":"https:\/\/brookingsbooks.com\/products\/9780375724961","provider":"Brookings Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
