The forest of destiny: Stories that change History

By Andrea Pestarino and Davide Canepa

Year 9 AD. Three Roman legions march into the unknown. Among them, a woman who might change the fate of an empire.

As the Roman Empire pushes deep into the wild, unconquered lands of Germania, Livia - a rebellious and brilliant Roman noblewoman - joins the governor Varus on a campaign that promises glory. But Livia is driven by the willing of exploring the world and understanding the so-called "barbarians" beyond the Rhine.

Unbeknownst to them all, a devastating betrayal is taking root in the shadows of the Teutoburg Forest. Arminius, a trusted Roman officer of Germanic blood, plots a rebellion that will shake the empire to its core.

Between battles, secrets, and shifting allegiances, Livia must navigate a world ruled by men, where knowledge can be as dangerous as any sword and where a single choice could alter the course of history.

The Forest of Destiny is a historical alternate-history novel that blends adventure, battles, mystery, and emotion.
The first volume in the series Stories That Change History, it's perfect for fans of ancient Rome, strong female protagonists, and the kind of questions that begin with: What if...?
