________________________ The dramatic climax to Ben Kane's Forgotten Legion Trilogy Having survived the perils of a journey across half the world, Romulus and Tarquinius are press-ganged into the legions, which are under imminent threat of annihilation by the Egyptians. Meanwhile in Rome, Romulus's twin sister Fabiola lives in fear for her life, loved by Brutus, but wooed by Marcus Antonius, his deadly enemy. Soon after, Romulus fights at Zela, the vicious battle where Caesar famously said, 'Veni, vidi, vici'. Tarquinius, separated from Romulus in the chaos of war, hides in Alexandria, searching for guidance. But mortal danger awaits them both. From the battlefields of Asia Minor and North Africa, to the lawless streets of Rome and the gladiator arena, they face death daily, until on the Ides of March, the twins are reunited and must decide either to back or to betray Caesar on his day of destiny.

About the Author

'History is more than facts on a pages. It's the sounds, the smells, the people, the passion. History should make you think: "I was there." My books are born from my obsession with Roman history. I've followed Spartacus' trail across Italy. I've stood at Cannae and imagined Hannibal's army meeting the massed legions of Rome. I've watched the sea lapping against the fortifications of Syracuse, which were besieged by the Romans for almost two years. I've walked Hadrian's Wall in full Roman military dress, including hobnailed boots. Immerse yourself in these incredible stories and - like me - remind yourself why the legend of Rome endures.' - Ben Kane 'Who is the rising star of historical fiction? I say Ben Kane.' - WILBUR SMITH To find out more about Ben Kane, his world and his novels visit: www.benkane.net Twitter @BenKaneAuthor Facebook.com/benkanebooks Insta benkanewrites
