Ends of the earth
A lost legion. A Han emperor. A mute killer. An incredible adventure.
The Roman Empire, 53BC: In the wake of catastrophic defeat at the battle of Carrhae, Roman tribune, Valerius, is taken prisoner at the far reaches of the Parthian Empire. It is the ends of the earth, and he vows to somehow find a way home.
In Rome, Pompey and Caesar battle for absolute power in the last days of the Republic, and senators plot to take sides as the city convulses into riot and civil war.
Valerius journeys over lands and oceans no Roman has ever seen before. He battles shipwrecks, black hurricanes, pirates and a fellow tribune who wants to crucify him.
But he knows he must find a way to survive, to embrace his wife again, to reclaim his life.
And to put his hands around the neck of the best friend who abandoned him to die on the battlefield.
