(Ebook) Rolling South (Arturo Sandus Book 4) by Peter Rhodan ISBN B08NWGZPLD

Arturo Sandus, former Federation Space Captain is building a new life in Britannia of the early 5th Century. He is industrializing the moribund northern part of the dying Roman Empire while slowly expanding his control to areas of Gaul and Hispania. The Emperor Honorius in Ravenna is not amused and decides enough is enough from these uppity Republicans and sends his armies north to deal with this Arturo fellow. After waiting a year so he could re-arm his troops with copies of a purloined musket as used by the Republicans a couple of years ago.The spectre of the Visigoths continues to dominate the western half of the Empire. The Imperial Roman leadership haven’t forgotten Hadrianopolis and are still scared to face the Visigoths in battle.The Vandali in Hispania, while cowed, are not conquered yet. Will the eastern half of the Empire send aid to Honorius in the west?Such are the threats facing the Republican cause. Expecting Arturo Sandus to be intimidated by a bunch of Romans with outdated weapons, to be scared of a horde of Germani squatting in southern Gallia or to be afraid of the threat of Eastern intervention is not something a good gambler would put money on.
