THE SERPENTS OF CAESARBOOK IICODEX

AN ANCIENT CODEX HIDES A SECRETTHAT THREATENS THE EMPIRE

In an alternate first century Rome, the clouds of treachery darken...

Verendus is an officer in the Praetorian Guard's elite cohort of spies and assassins. Known as Caesar's Serpents, its troops are fierce, formidable, and feared. Now they are after him.

When Verendus undertook an unauthorised mission to deliver a box to safekeeping, he didn't realise he'd be risking his life. Caesar's Serpents are on his trail and they will kill to obtain the codex within that box. Convinced that the codex contains information vital to a plot to overthrow the emperor, Verendus enlists the help of fugitive handmaid Corinna to translate the ancient pages. Corinna, however, has her own agenda.

As unrest stirs across the Empire, Verendus strives to safeguard the codex and unlock its secrets. But with allies failing, and the Serpents closing in, time is running out for him.

Book 2 of The Serpents of Caesar History meets fantasy in Ancient Rome

Codex is the second book of the historical fantasy series: The Serpents of Caesar. This story will continue in Inferno.
