    About this audiobook

    When Tsar Alexander II decided to drag Russia into the industrial age, he began by inviting Welsh businessman John Hughes to build an ironworks. A charismatic visionary, John persuades influential people to invest in his venture, while concealing his greatest secret – he couldn’t even write his own name. John recruited adventurers prepared to sacrifice everything to ensure the success of Hughesovka (Donetsk, Ukraine). In a place where murderers, whores, and illicit love affairs flourish, The Tsar’s Dragons is their story of a new beginning in Hughesovka, a town of opportunity.
