About This Book

The narrative follows a young medical student who, while driving with his companion, witnesses an anachronistic Roman galley and soldiers materializing on the river and across the prairie. Sudden walls and vast buildings rise, cutting off farms and towns, and disciplined ancient troops pour forth, engaging in brutal combat with armed locals. The encounters leave landscapes strewn with the fallen and provoke panic, while the protagonists confront the bewildering collision of past and present and the staggering scale of the invasion.
