Rome is burning.
88 B.C. After years of service to Rome, Quintus Sertorius has exchanged the bloodshed of the battlefield for the tranquility of his farm. He dedicates himself to his pregnant wife with the same vigor he displayed in the legion. But soon the bells of war toll again, and there is nowhere in Italy safe from its destruction. As rebel armies close in, Sertorius realizes his wife and child are in danger. The fate of his homeland is at stake, and he cannot ignore the call to arms. But while the Republic unravels, politicians exploit the chaos to bolster their power. As tensions spiral toward collision, the enigmatic general Lucius Cornelius Sulla orchestrates his rise to ultimate power. Men like Gaius Marius are determined to take supremacy for themselves. The horizon darkens with the threat of Rome's first civil war. Sertorius finds himself torn between the need to protect his wife and child and his duty to save Rome from consuming itself. Is it too late? For fans of Colleen McCullough, Conn Iggulden, and Ben Kane, While Rome Burned is the sixth book in the riveting Sertorius Scrolls historical fiction series. Whether read as a standalone or with the rest of the series, While Rome Burned will keep the pages turning and remain in readers' hearts and minds long after they finish reading. Grab your gladius and join Sertorius on his quest to save Rome!
