Book 3 of the cycle The wars of Marco Valerio: Streets of the empire

Marcus Valerio Eurus, centurion of the imperial excubitores, is now fully entitled to the farrier of King Clovis, an esteemed and perfectly integrated member of a court that can now begin to call itself multi-cultural. The very young king of the Franks had the intuition to merge his people with the Latin populations over which it finds itself to govern, understanding how this integration has the potential to multiply his resources and his strength as a ruler. Set its authority to a rebellious court and subjugated the more peripheral tribes, Clovis can now concentrate on consolidation of his power and while Marco patiently trains his army and father Ildebrando tries to create a network of communications and internal administration, he also begins to think in terms of relations with neighboring powers.

484 AD:Streets of the empire

Charged by the young King Clovis to lead his embassy to the Empire with the ambitious aim of being recognized as a friend and ally of Rome in the now distant Gaul, Marcus takes the beautiful and ambitious princess of the Franks with him and finds back his Empress, to which he is bound by a complicated relationship of loyalty, affection and distrust. Aelia Ariadne is increasingly surrounded by declared enemies and hidden traitors, even in the narrowest circle of her own family; to defend herself, she will have to rely once more on her trusty western centurion, but in doing so she will risk losing forever not only his affection for her, but also his respect. And while Marcus will again do his duty to the fullest against the enemies of the Empire, the Augusta will discover that the haughty Teuton princess led by him to court could represent a threat more dangerous than ever.
