A new war. A new enemy. Nine years ago, Lt. Commander Ky, a test pilot from the future, was flung back in time to a world that never existed. In this world, Carthage won the Punic Wars and Rome was all but destroyed, pushed back to a corner of the British Isles. That war is over. With Ky's help, the Romans formed a new Britannic Empire, defeated the mighty Carthaginian Empire, and set up a new paradigm in Europe. For five years, Britannia has led the Western world into peace. They have helped the recovering people from new alliances and nations, creating a more or less unified Europe. But the time of peace has ended. Shattered by a sudden, unprovoked attack from the East, using weapons equal to those developed in Britannia, war has returned. Now, Britannia rallies the Western countries into a new Western Alliance to stave off the Eastern threat. The first book in a sequel series to Imperium.
