“An exotic blend of Roman and Hindu lore that weaves a curious and convincing tale melding otherworidliness and dire reality,”　
—Publishers Weekly
REMEMBER YOU ARE ROMAN
The tribune Quintus was once a man of honor. But when Rome’s might is crushed at the battle of Carrhae, Quintus can only watch with honor and hope gone as Rome's Eagles — the golden standards which every Roman believes houses the very essence of the gods - are dragged through the mud by the barbarian hordes. The Eagles will go East as bloody testimony to Rome’s humiliation.
But even in Hell, there sometimes lies a path of redemption, Quintus will follow the Eagles and strive to somehow recapture the honor that Rome has lost. He will abandon the logic that is Rome... and travel into the mists of myth and legend, where he wiil see visions of magic unknown to any Roman.
And where he will learn to use barbarian magic to win back Rome’s gods...
“Vividly realized and a welcome change from traditional forest-oriented fantasy...　
Empire of the Eagle is a wonderful fantasy.”
