Augusta: The Lost Epic of Rome's Last Days

By L a Henneke

Despite being born into the Roman royal household, a sister to the emperor himself, Honoria does not know her true strength. She lives in an uneasy time. The empire is fractured, rumors of Dragons in the far north have reached her ears, and Attila himself plans to march on Italy and claim her as his prize. Exiled on account of this and all her previous scandals, Honoria finds herself thrust into a world that is just as weird and wonderful as it is violent. Attila's armies ravage the lands, hoping to bargain with the dread Dragon of which Rumor spoke. But he is not the only ancient reptile that has been spotted. A strange breed of animal that has long outlived the hour of its extinction has been seen again, and it is in its kind that Honoria finds a most potent ally. Joining forces with one whom her people would call a barbarian, Honoria travels to worlds beyond her own to marshal the one host that could save their world, an army of terrors older than any empire the earth has ever known. She will travel across the cosmos to face Attila head on and see the Huns defeated, and she will go down into the Underworld itself, battling forces she had long imagined as mythological to see her goals done. But whether Attila is vanquished or not, Rome is doomed to fall. Like all empires, she must fade. If Honoria is truly to bring peace to the people she cares for, she will have to do more than wage war on her enemies. That alone will do no good in healing the wounds left by a war that has torn a continent apart.
