Born of the most prominent family in Hispania, the father of Magnus Maximus squandered his part of the family fortune before his sons came of age. While his cousins lived a life of privilege, Maximus rose through the ranks of the western armies the hard way, becoming known as the “Crusher of Rebellions” for his ability to quell uprisings of the most violent order. It was this reputation which saw Maximus sent into the hard north to tame yet another heathen rebellion. Had he been of moderate ambition, his career might have ended in Britannia, but there was nothing moderate about Magnus ...

The cascading perils of the Late Rome era were relentless, bombarding whichever emperor was so unfortunate as to inherit the Purple during the last gasp of the Roman Empire.

The Last Dynasty is the enthralling Fifth installment of the epic ...

The Battle Frigidus marked the final installment of Rome’s trilogy of monumental civil wars. Those previous battles fought between Caesar and Pompey and again between Constantine and Licinius might be better remembered, but never had the stakes been higher than when east battled west in the rocky outcrops of the Julian Pass. As Rome goes, so does the ...

The lands of southern Arizona hold many secrets, some of which are worth killing for. When an archeology student is found dead, it seems like a tragic case of senseless violence. But when a second victim is targeted, Apache Tribal Policeman Al Victor realizes something far more sinister is afoot.

Certainly one of the more unusual books in Hermetic literature, Wisdom for my Younger Self reads more like a student’s notebook than a comprehensive training manual or detailed treatise on an esoteric topic.

The author demonstrates his great respect for the reader’s time, going to great pains to omit filler and keep the exposition of his most important teachings as concise as possible. The pages of this book contain, in a highly condensed form, the most important pieces of information the author ...

The "Aeneid" is a Latin epic poem, written by Virgil between 29 and 19 BC, that tells the legendary story of Aeneas, a Trojan who travelled to Italy, where he became the ancestor of the Romans. It is composed of 9,896 lines in dactylic hexameter. The first six of the poem's 12 books tell the story of Aeneas's wanderings from Troy to Italy, and the poem's second half tells of the Trojans' ultimately victorious war upon the Latins, under whose name Aeneas and his Trojan followers are destined to be subsumed.
