"The Gabinian Affair" presents the memoir written by a retired
Roman soldier, Gaius Marius Insubrecus, who served Caesar during
his conquest of Gaul and in the subsequent civil wars. He later
served under Caesar's son and heir, Octavianus, in his war against
Marcus Antonius and Cleopatra. As a youth, Insubrecus was caught
between two worlds. He lived in the mythical tales told to him by
his grandfather about the heroic past of his people, the Gah'el.
However, his mother, Valeria, was determined to make a practical
and successful Roman gentlemen out of him. On top of all this, he
fell in love with Gabinia, the beautiful daughter of a Roman
Senator, whose family was determined to kill him to uphold their
honor. Insubrecus tries to escape the assassins sent after him from
Rome by hiding in the Roman army, right at the time that the new
governor, Gaius Iulius Caesar, launches his legions into the
forests of Gaul to stop an invasion by a fierce and ruthless tribe
called the Helvetii. Insubrecus is plunged into a world of
violence, intrigue and betrayal, as he tries to serve his new
patron, Caesar, and to stay alive, while pursued by Roman
cutthroats and Gallic warriors.
