Rome and the Northern Frontier. 9 C.E.
One seeks revenge against the barbarians who killed his parents.
One desires freedom by fighting in the arena.
One craves victory over the empire that abducted him from his parents.
One demands justice for the port's murder victims.
All leads to the Teutoburg Forest where three Roman legions will clash with the Germanic tribes.
The world will be forever changed.
"A grand story that illustrates how the blood spilled from revenge can never wash away...The Roman empire feels alive and bustling...an excellent job candidly portraying the lives of women at the time...The focus on multifaceted women adds some captivating layers of emotional depth...well-researched historical fiction. It's invoked with mystery, love, and all of the epic heroics that we have come to associate with this time period." - The Independent Book Review
