Warrior and combat medic, Titus Cervianus, must lead a legion and
quell the uprisings in Egypt in this thrilling Roman adventure from
Simon Turney. Titus Cervianus is no ordinary soldier. And the
Twenty Second is no ordinary legion... Egypt. 25 BC. A former
surgeon from the city of Ancyra, Titus Cervianus is now a capsarius
- a combat medic. He is a pragmatist, a scientist - and deeply
unpopular with his legion, the Twenty Second Deiotariana. The
Twenty Second have been sent to deal with uprisings in Egypt.
Founded as the private army of one of Rome's most devoted allies,
their ways are not the same as the other legions', which sets them
apart and causes friction with their fellow soldiers. Marching into
the unknown, Cervianus will find unexpected allies: a local
cavalryman and a troublesome lunatic. Both will be of critical
importance as the young medic marches through the searing sands of
the south, finding forbidden temples, hidden assassins, and worst
of all, the warrior queen of Kush... Reviews for The Capsarius
'Brings a whole new dimension to the genre... Recommended'
