At that moment I fell again, and this time I did not get up. I could not. I lay sprawled in the littered roadway and the most I could do was to lift my head. I would watch the ship glide out of sight along the rim of the quay, carrying with her my chance of escape. It would be the last thing my eyes rested on, before the tribesmen reached me and their spears came lunging down... Then a wonderful thing happened, an unbelievable thing.
Jump into this story, set in Imperial Rome! Paul, left an orphan by the uprising of the tribes in Britain, travels across the empire to help his friend the poet, Severus. Along the way he meets villians, charioteers, indifferent patricians, and at last...the emporer he seeks.
