2008 Locus Award for Best Science Fiction Novel (nominee)
As the comet fills the sky over Britain and rumours of war coming from across the channel spread two young men accompany a lecherous bishop north to the ruins of the ancient Hadrian's Wall to search for a man known only as 'the last Roman' and the mysterious prophecy he keeps - the prophecy of Isolde. It is a prophecy that tells of an invasion by a North man and an empire that will last thousands of years, an empire of the Aryans. Stephen Baxter's new series is full of page-turning action, intriguing mystery and awe-inspiring scientific speculation. Full of evocative historical detail and characters who jump of the page this is history lived by people who's future is not yet locked as our past.
