SIGNUM THE SERPENTS OF CAESAR ~ BOOK 1 In an alternate first century Rome, treachery casts a long shadow... When Praetorian Guard Verendus answers a plea to return home, he finds military unit "the Watch" terrorising the island of Iolia. The Watch signum is a sinister symbol he encountered years ago and hundreds of miles away on a barbarian battleground. As his suspicions mount that the ascendance of the Watch and the signum's presence in Iolia are more than coincidence, Verendus is asked to undertake a mysterious - and unauthorised - mission. In Iolia's Temple of the Flame, handmaid Corinna is accused of theft. Fearing for her life, but determined to silence her accuser, she makes a desperate decision. A decision that will propel her into Verendus' path. Both must escape from the island. Neither trusts the other. As old ghosts stir and a deadly adversary comes to the fore, the Watch closes in. Book I of The Serpents of Caesar ~ History meets fantasy in Ancient Rome Signum is the first book of the historical fantasy series: The Serpents of Caesar. This story will continue in Codex.
