Wings of Dawn is a Secret History novel by Sigmund Brouwer.Between 1298 and 1299, Marco Polo was imprisoned in Italy, during which time he dictated a description of his travels in the Orient to an author named Rustichello da Pisa under the title of Il Milione. It quickly became popular throughout Europe, and to those who scoffed, he always insisted that he had never told half of what he had seen.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_content_3'); })This is readily believable if one considers that Il Milione contains no mention or description of gunpowder, which had been known in China for centuries. Yet, nevertheless, gunpowder was "discovered" in Europe at almost the same time as Marco Polo's return - by the year 1300 at the very latest, though the developments to make it stable and commonly used didn't occur for some time after that.Suppose such technological marvels were recorded somewhere, and simply lost to history...The year is 1312; the place, a small village in northern England. A young man by the name of Thomas, raised in a nearby abbey, has earned the loyalty of a returned crusader accused of the theft of a chalice (as well as a mute girl and a pickpocket) and blackmailed the abbey monks into allowing him to leave. His goal is Magnus, a remote castle in the moors with impregnable defenses and a tyrannical usurper who slaughtered the family of Thomas' nurse when he took over. That alone will be difficult, even armed with the power of literacy, urban legends, and a chest full of scientific texts - but, of course, there's far more going on than it might first appear.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_content_2'); }) | |

MacGuffin: The cache of Druidic lore and treasure that can be used to prove the Ancient Conspiracy's existence. Also the cache of books from the Orient that Thomas has, which both conspiracies are trying to get their hands on. | |

Also a case of the man behind the man also being the man in front of the same man. And several other men. Multiple times. | |
