Tight book with no marks or stamps. Flawless text pages. The year is A.D. 255 -- the Roman Imperium is stretched to its breaking point, its authority and might challenged along every border. The greatest threat lies in Persia to the East, where the massing forces of the Sassanid Empire loom with fiery menace. There the isolated Roman citadel of Arete awaits inevitable invasion. One man is sent to marshal the defenses and shore up crumbling walls. A man whose name itself means war: a man called Ballista. So unfolds an epic drama -- a story of empire, of heroes, of treachery, of courage, and most of all, a story of brutal bloody warfare. Already a bestseller in the U.K., Fire in the East is the first gripping installment in an immense grand narrative -- the Warrior of Rome series. In this gripping account. The author combines stunning historical detail with resounding contemporary relevance as he explores the enduring question of how far the West will go to defend its liberties before it destroys the very thing it is trying to protect. .
