Aces high…As the threat of European war looms, the Kingdom of Ethiopia is one of the first to come under attack from the Fascist powers.

Bound by oaths and friendship, they undertake a dangerous journey across the Mediterranean and into the heart of a battle where they will be tested as never before.
