The same name under two skies: Two men. Two wars. One choice that defies history.

By Eduardo Kwiatkowski

Marko Vukovic fights in the Balkan War in 1991. Marcus Vukovius is a legionary of the Roman Empire on the Danube frontier.

Both are thirty years old. Both bear the same name. Both share the same blood.

When a blow to the head swaps their consciousnesses, each awakens in the other's war: the modern soldier in the brutal world of Rome, the ancient legionary in the technological chaos of the 20th century.

As they try to survive by pretending to be who they are not, they discover that history does not advance as we believe: technology changes, laws persist, and war remains equally unproductive in every era.

As their values begin to alter the course of both wars, one truth becomes inevitable: not everyone can return.

Written in sober, human prose charged with irony, The Same Name Under Two Skies is a novel about the invisible inheritance of violence, the fragility of progress, and the only possible victory in war: deciding how not to lose oneself completely.
