Publisher's Synopsis
Very few people in this world are as equally loved as they are hated.
Taken from his Germanic tribal home by Roman soldiers under the order of Caesar Augustus, ten-year-old noble prince, Arminius was trained with only one purpose-to become a ruthless military leader within the greatest empire of the ancient world.
Embracing the enticing world of Roma with its vast culture, arts, politics, and beautiful women, Arminius' loyalty appeared to be sound. Educated in the School of Princes and trained to fight, lead, and conquer, he became a cavalry leader at eighteen, fought in the Pannonian Wars on the Balkan Peninsula, and proved his military worth as the Roman leaders expanded their global conquests.
That is, until...
Arminius returned to Germania under General Quinctilius Varus and witnessed the conditions in which the Romans left his beloved childhood home and people.
The Roman Empire's drive to extend its control deep into the Barbarian territory is then strategically denied by the least likely person Rome would have ever believed could do such a traitorous, brutal act.
Honoring his Roman leaders by day and unifying the Germanic tribes at night, Arminius led an ambush that would forever change the face of the Roman Military. This historical fiction account about the once-loved son of Rome, and enemy-turned-savior of Germania, Arminius, is written by the multi-award-winning author, of the Berlin Butterfly Series, another historical fiction story set in her family's ancestral home of Germany.
