Worshipped by Rome. Betrayed by love. Stalked by death. Rome is
enjoying a period of stability and prosperity. The Empire's borders
are growing, and there are two sons in the imperial succession for
the first time in Rome's history. But all is not as it appears.
Cracks are beginning to show. Two decades of war have taken their
toll, and there are whispers of a sickness in the East. The Empire
stands on the brink of true disaster, an age of gold giving way to
one of iron and rust, a time of reason and strength sliding into
hunger and pain. The decline may yet be halted, though. One man
tries to hold the fracturing empire together. To Rome, he is their
emperor, their Hercules, their Commodus. But Commodus is breaking
up himself, and when the darkness grips, only one woman can hold
him together. To Rome she was nothing. The plaything of the
emperor. To Commodus, she was everything. She was Marcia.
