What a beautiful cover, I really love the green. Your book sounds amazing, is it based on a true story?
ReplyDeleteI have added your book to my to-read list.
ReplyDeleteHello. Thank you about the cover! It's not based on a true story but my series roughly follows the very first Ancient Roman invasion of Caledonia (Scotland), led by General Gnaeus Iulius Agricola.(according to Roman historian Tacitus) My characters are fictitious but the locations used are mainly where there's been evidence of Roman occupation around about the period from CE/AD 73 through 84.
