Draco Dawn, the first in a trilogy, is a gripping historical Roman fact-fiction novel set against the brutal backdrop of the Dacian Wars during the reign of Emperor Domitian.
At its heart is Titus, a battle-hardened Roman scout acting under direct orders from Domitian. When the infamous ambush of Cornelius Fuscus devastates the Roman forces in the treacherous Carpathian passes, Titus, accompanied by his fiercely loyal war dog Lakon, must navigate the shattered legion against the hostile Dacian Wolf Warriors, aware that it is contrary to his orders.
Blending historical events with intrigue and drama, Draco Dawn is a tale of survival, vengeance, and the fragile hope of redemption amid the chaos of empire.
Colin Dean is a British author who fuses gritty historical accuracy with pulse-pounding fiction, immersing readers in the brutal, disciplined world of the Roman legions. With a fascination for ancient warfare and the psychology of men under arms, Colin crafts stories that march the line between fact and fiction-where real history meets raw imagination.
Drawing on deep research into Roman military structure, battlefield tactics, and daily life in the ranks, Colin's work brings forgotten names and untold campaigns vividly to life. Whether writing about the thunder of marching cohorts or the quiet fears of a lone scout in the forested wilds of Dacia, his stories resonate with authenticity and heart.
Colin's writing is a tribute to discipline, courage, and the ghosts of Rome who still march in the imagination.
