In 48 B.C., having survived a disastrous campaign in Pythia
as part of the Forgotten Legion and spent years fighting
their way back to Rome, Romulus and Tarquinius have finally
made it as far as Alexandria. On arrival, though, they find
themselves in the midst of the Roman Civil War, are
press-ganged into Caesar’s thinning legions and greatly
outnumbered and fighting for their lives against the
Egyptian army. Meanwhile in Rome, Romulus’ twin sister Fabiola, having
caught only a glimpse of her long-missing twin before being
forced to flee Egypt for Rome, lives in fear for her life,
loved by Brutus, but wooed by Marcus Antonius, his deadly enemy. From the battlefields of Asia Minor and North Africa, to the
lawless streets of Rome and the gladiator arena, they all
face death and danger daily, until 44 B.C. when their
individual roads all lead them to Rome where the future of
the republic lies unexpectedly in their hands.
