The Legionnaire

By Nathan D. Maki

Description:

Having escaped the gladiator school and fled the city of Rome, Antonius and Theudas now find themselves on a far deadlier battlefield. The entire Roman Empire is racked with civil war on the heels of the assassinations of both Emperor Commodus and his successor Pertinax. Now four would-be Emperors, including their erstwhile savior, the governor and general Severus, lead their legions to vie for the Imperial throne. Antonius and Theudas must fight their way from Syria to Gaul and finally back to Rome.
Will Antonius’s hope of restoration to his faith, family, and the woman he loves be just another casualty of the brutal civil war? Can God ever forgive him for the things he’s been forced to do? As Antonius returns to Rome to face a resurgent persecution will God remain faithful? And if he remains faithful to God will it cost him his life?

Book Takeaway:

Even when we walk away from God, He will make a way for restoration.
