Seller's Description:
Good in good dust jacket. Outline: -With barbarians at the gate and enemies within two men must fight for the soul of the Republic and the greatest empire in the world. A cave hacked out of the rock lit by flickering torches...two young boys appeal to the famed Roman oracle for a glimpse into their future. The Sybil draws a blood-red shape of an eagle with wings outstretched. An omen of death. As they flee from the cave in fear Aulus and Lucius make an oath of loyalty until death. An oath that will be tested in the years to come. Thirty years on and Aulus now Rome`s most successful general faces his toughest battle. Barbarian rebels have captured his wife and are demanding the withdrawal of Roman legions from their land in return for her life. It is unthinkable for Aulus to agree and he fears her life must be forfeit to Rome. Meanwhile Lucius has risen to high rank in the Senate; a position he uses and abuses. But when Lucius is suspected of arranging a murder the very foundations of the Republic are threatened. Lucius and Aulus soon find themselves on very different sides of the conflict perhaps the prophecy of the eagle will come true after all. History and adventure brutality and courage combine to powerful effect making The Pillars of Rome an outstanding opening to the Republic series. -> the publisher of this PAPERBACK book is Allison & Busby The date of this copy is 2008 booksalvation have grade it as Good and it will be shipped from our UK warehouse This book is from the Republic Series.
