The Warrior of Rome is back . . . AD256: the Roman Empire is threatened from within. With the cult of Christianity spreading like wildfire, dangerous and powerful men vie for influence. Ballista, battle-bloodied general and survivor of the siege of Arete, has returned to an imperial court obsessed with intrigue and religious fanaticism.

But it is to Rome's eastern frontier where a vast Persian army is assembled that an even greater threat to Ballista and Rome awaits . . .
