Step into worlds where Rome never fell, where power, rebellion, and destiny collide.

In Sophie Burnham’s Bloodtide, the Empire has begun to fracture under betrayal and unrest. Tair, now custodian of the powerful Iveroa Stone, fights to protect Luxana as resistance rises in the streets. In the Imperial Archives, Selah uncovers dangerous truths, while far beyond the city, Arran and Theo undertake a covert mission that could shift the coming war. As tensions mount, Sargassa’s fate may already be sealed by a storm on the horizon.

In Solitaire Townsend’s Godstorm, a petrol-powered Roman Empire sets the stage for Arrow, a former gladiatrix turned governess, to confront her past. When the child she loves is taken during a devastating storm, Arrow defies her master and turns to old allies in a desperate search. As betrayal and battle close in, she must decide whether to become the killer she once was—or risk everything to save the girl who calls her mother.
