Arthur Invictus

Londinium. Britain has lost its battle with Rome and the city lies in ruins. But the Romans, under threat in their homeland from barbarian invaders, have retreated. The war is not over. As Emperor of Britain, Arthur Imperator must reunite the fractured British tribes to lead them back to victory - and reclaim the kingdom. The Roman emperor Maximian is bound to strike again. But instead of waiting passively for him to attack, Arthur resolves to risk everything by leading his men to the Roman border and confronting the enemy head on. Can Arthur persuade Rome’s enemies to join him and create a strong enough force to take down Gaul? Or will Maximian’s might once again prove too strong for the British people? Arthur Invictus combines myth with historical fact to tell the compelling story of the rise of a legendary British Emperor. It is perfect for fans of fans of Tim Severin, Robyn Young and Simon Scarrow.
