In the autumn of 255 AD, the Roman Empire faces the threat of the Persian Sasanids. Marco Clodio Ballista, a Roman officer of Germanic origin, is sent to Arete, on the banks of the Euphrates, to defend the city. While preparing the defenses, he discovers spies among his trusted men. Amidst the violence and passion on the fringes of the Empire, Ballista is drawn to the exotic beauty of Bathshiva. This first installment of the 'Warrior of Rome' series combines historical rigor, psychological insight, and an adventurous spirit, transporting the reader to a world of intrigue and epic battles.
