The Emperor's Games

Centurions at war. The Roman Empire at stake.
Brothers Correus and Flavius have won respect in service to the Empire. Correus is entrusted with the honoured task of running the Emperor's brutal games. Flavius, a Centurion at his brother's side, has risen to become the Emperor's most trusted advisor.
But now Correus has been given a deadly mission: quelling a barbarian uprising in Germany. While he struggles to negotiate a treaty that could save the lives of thousands, he uncovers a deadly plot that could cast the Empire - and his own family - into ruin...
The Emperor's Games is an enthralling historical adventure, perfect for fans of Ben Kane and Conn Iggulden.
