Honoria refuses to believe that her lover could have betrayed her-and Rome-by leading the German attack. But she puts her worry aside to defend the Roman camp from a band of raiders.
Arminius struggles to keep his forces united when the tribal bands of Germania begin to fracture beneath old blood feuds.
Story-wise, it could use a little more "meat on the bone" but this feels like more of a feast for the eyes in this alternate history story. If you're a history buff or are looking for a solid story that plunks readers into the story of Rome, this might definitely be worth your time. Read Full Review
I enjoyed this. The writer is taking an approach where you are funneled into the story with little prep and have to figure your way around things. Demands multiple reads and close examination of the amazing art. Which does a lot to carry the book ill admit. Still, this is worth picking up.
Pretty good story beat this monthly format is damaging the enjoyment overall. The story feel randomly truncated without giving any pay off.
Te energy from the first issue continues. The story had just enough historical background to be believable and there's enough of it being dramatized to keep interest. Reminds me a bit of the 300 comic.
More of the same. It's a stupid story set in an entertaining time in history. Even in the Roman days, you needed one woman in a group of hundreds of men to set them straight and call them out for being cowards. This is how it would really go. Woman: You are all being cowards!
Roman officer: Smack!!!
That would be the whole story if it was historically accurate. I'm not saying that is how the story should have been, but come on. How about a little realism?
