The Rhine
Portal to Nova Roma, Book 3
As the dust settles on the battlefield of Carthage, Alexander finds himself struggling to cope with the aftermath of war. Plagued by demonic corruption and mental exhaustion, he searches for any means to restore his strength and secure his rapidly expanding empire.
In his desperation, Alexander turns to a mysterious prisoner who offers a unique form of power that could help him achieve his goals. But with the prisoner's motivations unclear, Alexander must weigh the risks of trusting this enigmatic figure against his own desperate need for a solution. In addition to his personal struggles, Alexander faces the daunting task of securing trade routes for Venice before the pirate threat returns.
Seeking new sources of resources and allies, he leads his legion north to the scattered outposts on the dangerous frontier.
But the region is fraught with danger, as many of the outposts have recently been overrun by powerful monsters or treachery. To survive, Alexander and his legion must rely on new allies, new technology, and strange, unknown powers that Alexander alone might be able to master.
As Alexander ventures deeper into the unknown, he must also grapple with his own inner demons and find a way to heal his mind and body. Can he overcome the challenges ahead and lay claim to the resources of the frontier?
