My Featured Books
I love taking the skeleton of history and putting meat on its bones.
I truly do love bringing history to life. And my Agricola Series does just that.
It is a story of a father’s love…but which one.
Julius – the tortured soul Calgacus – the golden soul Colin – the torn soul
Gnaeus Julius Agricola is an historical character who walked the paths of Rome and Britannia. I met him in a bookstore in Annapolis Md. USA when I met Boudica, queen of the Iceni who led 200,000 warriors against Rome to rid their lands of Roman stench. It didn’t work. But I was captured in this magnificent world of Rome vs Celts.
Yes, Julius was a Roman tribune in RED FURY REVOLT. Yes, he was a senator in RED FURY RAGE with Nero, his Domus Aurea, and the Great Fire.  And Julius, was present in Rome during the massacre of Christians and Year of Four Emperors. RED FURY REBELLION
This resulted in Season One of my Agricola series, that includes so many other historical characters who were also there at the same time: Boudica, Calgacus, Suetonius Paulinus … Paul, Peter, Luke, John, Mary Magdalene … the future emperors-Nerva, Domitian, Vespasian, Trajan when they were just ordinary citizens.
Season Two begins the final pursuit of Julius seeking his son that Calgacus has claimed and named Colin. Where will it end…Mons Graupius, of course. Dogs, bag pipes, Roman legions, Caledonii tribes, fury, revenge, love and hatred, it’s all there. Don’t miss it.
