Driven by the desire to repay the treachery of his former patron, the Emperor Galba, and to keep his rival Valens in check, Severus leads his army against barbarian rebellions and against the mountains themselves in his race to reach Italy first. With the vast Po valley almost in sight, news reaches the army that Galba has been killed in a coup, and that Otho has been declared Emperor by the Praetorians who he had bribed to murder their own emperor.
But there is no turning back for Severus, even if he wanted to. The Rhine legions want their man on the throne, and they won't stop until they reach Rome itself. Even once Otho is defeated, the battle for supremacy between Severus and Valens is far from over. The politics of the court and the mob is the new battleground, and Severus needs the help of his wife Salonina and his freedman Totavalas in this constant game of thrones. When stories spread of a new power in the east, Severus has to decide where his real loyalty lies: to his Emperor, to his city or to himself?
AD 69. Aulus Caecina Severus has thrown in his lot - and his legions - with the luxury-loving would-be emperor Vitellius.
Driven by both the desire for revenge against his treacherous former patron, the Emperor Galba, and to keep his rival Valens in check, Severus leads his army first against the barbarian rebellions and then the Alps themselves in his race to reach Italy. Then news reaches him that Galba has been killed in a coup and Otho declared Emperor by the Praetorians who had been bribed to murder his predecessor.
Now there is no turning back for Severus. The Rhine legions want their man on the throne, and won't stop until they reach Rome itself. The struggle for supremacy is bitter and bloody. The politics of the court and the mob are the new battleground, and Severus needs the help of those closest to him if he is to win this game of thrones . . .
Then stories spread of a new power rising in the east and Severus must decide where his loyalty really lies - to his Emperor, to his city, or to himself?
