Barbarian and the Throne: BRAND NEW for 2026, an epic historical adventure of war, power and loyalty, perfect for fans of Bernard Cornwell and Simon Scarrow
About this ebook
Videricus and his companion Ulrich join the Roman army and fight under Stilicho, as he leads his men against a band of renegade Goths. In battle, Videricus must first learn what it is to be a killer of men, before he can hope to grow into a respected leader.
But as the Eastern emperor, Theodosius, prepares himself once more for the brutality of a civil war, Videricus walks a dangerous line between loyalty and devotion. And on the banks of the River Frigidus, flanked by the snow peaked Alps, east will face west in a devastating battle that will change the course of the empire forever.
