Map of Byzantium from God of Thieves: Initiation

A map of Byzantium is included in “God of Thieves: Initiation“, showing key locations of the city that are central to the events of the book. The map was greatly inspired by ancient maps of Constantinople, as well as research on the layout of the city during ancient times (referred to as the “Byzantine period” by historians, although the name was not widely used in antiquity, and the residents broadly referred to themselves as Romans).

Key locations in the story, such as Hekate’s House, The Palace of Dreams, and the Palace of Pearls, are shown with relation to ancient landmarks such as the Mese, still visible and in use today.
