This is a choose-your-own-adventure-style novella intended for students at the Latin III-IV level. From the foreword: This book is set during the Great Fire of Rome. The year is 64 CE, the emperor is Nero, and you are Felix, a fifteen-year-old boy who sometimes lives up to his name and other times... less so. Felix is a mixed-race boy living in the Subura. In the writing of this book, we wanted to raise the voice of non-white and minority people. We've done our best to include people from various walks of life: the wealthy and powerful, citizens of the lower class, thieves, educated and uneducated, a slave, a freedman, people of various races and backgrounds, strong women, single parents, a disabled character, and (if you get to page 53) non-straight characters. You are the son of a freed slave and a mother you've never met. Your father went to work at Nero's palace this morning, but he never came home. Do you escape the fire? Do you find your father, who may be in danger from more than just the blaze? You'll meet historical figures--and some surprising players in your own life--along your way, and the choices you make will affect not just you, but the people you love as well. There are questions you'll ask: who is your mother? where is your father? and who set fire to the city? The biggest question, though, is this: you are Felix by name. Will you be felix in reality? Good luck!
