The Caspian Gates is the fourth in Harry Sidebottom's captivating
Warrior of Rome Series. AD262 - the Imperium is in turmoil after
the struggle for the throne. Furthermore, Ephesus, Asia's
metropolis, lies in ruins, shattered by a mighty earthquake. Its
citizens live in fear as the mob overwhelms the city, baying for
blood to avenge the gods who have punished them. Yet an even
greater threat to the Empire advances from the North. The barbaric
Goth tribes sail towards Ephesus, determined to pillage the city.
Only Ballista, Warrior of Rome, knows the ways of the barbarians,
and only he can defeat them. The Goths' appetite for brutality and
destruction is limitless and before long Ballista is locked into a
deadly bloodfeud, with an enemy that has sworn to destroy him - and
the Imperium - at all costs. Dr Harry Sidebottom is a leading
authority on ancient warfare - he applies his knowledge with a
spectacular flair for sheer explosive action and knuckle-whitening
drama. Fans of Bernard Cornwell will love Sidebottom's recreation
of the ancient world. Praise for Harry Sidebottom: 'Sidebottom's
prose blazes with searing scholarship' The Times 'The best sort of
red-blooded historical fiction' Andrew Taylor, author of The
American Boy Dr. Harry Sidebottom is Fellow of St Benets Hall, and
Lecturer at Lincoln College, Oxford - where he specializes in
ancient warfare and classical art.
