The Dead Of Rome.: Book Two of The Dead of the Northern Frontier Series - Softcover

Inhaltsangabe

Rome has survived wars, rebellions and countless enemies.
But it has never faced the dead.
After the horrors of the northern frontier, Marcus Valerius Severus has returned to Italy hoping to leave war behind. Reunited with Livia and trying to build an ordinary life, he believes his days of fighting are over.
Then the reports begin.
Settlements fall silent. Refugees arrive carrying stories of soldiers who died — and rose again. The plague of walking dead that Marcus encountered in Britannia has crossed the Empire and reached Italy.
Called back into service, Marcus must prepare Rome for an enemy that cannot be reasoned with, cannot be frightened, and does not stop when wounded.
With Varro and Priscus at his side, and Cadan, Rhiannon, Bran and Mair caught in the struggle, Romans and Britons must stand together as the dead close around the heart of the Empire.
The walls of Rome may hold.
The question is whether the people behind them will survive.
The Empire endures. But the dead do not rest.
