Book
Arthur Invictus
First published 2013
Londinium lies damaged after Britain’s renewed conflict with Rome, while the empire withdraws troops to meet invasions closer to Italy. Arthur remains emperor of a fractured country and must rebuild his forces before Maximian can exploit British division and recover the island.
Rather than wait for another invasion, Arthur carries the war towards the Roman frontier and seeks alliances among Rome’s enemies in Gaul. The campaign tests whether a coalition formed by shared fear can become a disciplined army, and whether Arthur can defend Britain without recreating the imperial violence he claims to oppose.
