These and other characters created by the pen of this author, living out their stories, which intertwine and unfold to the last page of the novel, to find themselves on opposite sides in the final battle between the Roman and Gallic troops unne , where the first managed to beat the Hun leader, forcing him to return to his lands.
Inside an accurate historical reconstruction of Deer move characters, all very real but totally invented to fit perfectly with her intricate plots.
Bloody battles follow in this novel, highlighting violence of this war and the ruthlessness of these warriors who invaded northern Italy, leaving behind them only death and ruin.
Was the end, leaving a glimmer of hope to the endless wars
