Aesop's Solon Barry Klemm

Aesop, the man with a fable to elucidate any situation, finds himself guarding the back of his friend Solon of Athens during the politically seminal year of 594BC, when the latter established the basis of future Democratic governments with the invention of the bicameral parliamentary system and the first use of juries. At the same time he must find a way to end a timeless blood feud, and learn to control his own susceptibility to the aphrodisiac effects of absolute power.
