21st century Roma Nova - powered by the Roman mindset, ruled by women
Praetorian Carina Mitela is courageous, fallible and sassy. She hefts a gladius or assault rifle as required. But can she defeat treachery, conspiracy and a dark nemesis and still keep an enduring love burning?
"My ancestors fought to hold this land sixteen hundred years ago. I'm not letting some throwback destroy it."

Transformation, deception, rebels, vengeance takers, comradeship and an epic love story bind these three adventures in a new Rome founded sixteen hundred years ago by dissidents from the Roman Empire, and ruled by women.
