In the bestselling tradition of Steven Pressfield, Bernard
Cornwell, and Conn Iggulden, a blockbuster set in gladiatorial Rome
Already a bestseller in the U.K., "Fire in the East" is the first
gripping installment in an immense grand narrative?the Warrior of
Rome series. In this ?well-constructed, well-paced and gripping
account? (Times Literary Supplement) Harry Sidebottom combines
stunning historical detail with resounding contemporary relevance
as he explores the enduring question of how far the West will go to
defend its liberties before it destroys the very thing it is trying
to protect.
AD 255?the Roman imperium is stretched to the breaking point, its
authority and might challenged throughout the territories and along
every border. One man is sent to marshal the defenses of a lonely
city and to shore up the crumbling walls of a once indomitable
symbol of Roman power, a man whose very name means war: a man
called Ballista. So unfolds an epic drama?a story of empire,
heroes, treachery, courage, and most of all, of brutal, bloody
warfare.
The spectacular flair for explosive action, depth of literary and
geographic knowledge, as well as the psychological complexity of
the characters makes "Fire in the East" the most authoritative
historical adventure novel this year.
