Quote1 Trust me, Achillia. There are no curses, no gods, and only very occasionally are there devils. This evil prayer is just a crude way to scare people away from what they're not supposed to find. NOW OPEN THE DAMNED DOOR! Quote2

Where have the eagles landed?

Antonius Axia has survived the wilds of Britain and witnessed the horrors of his own homeland… and now, the trail of Emperor Nero’s stolen eagles relics has led him and gladiatrix Achillia to the newly annexed province of Egypt! But, those who once held power in the Fertile Crescent might not be so quick to welcome them… or any other nosy Romans, for that matter!

Renowned writer Peter Milligan (Detective Comics) and fan-favorite artist Robert Gill (X-O MANOWAR) follow the LOST EAGLES OF ROME into dangerous territory – and unleash a terrible new threat on the ancient world!

Quote1 Oh, I can sense him, Sister Aelia. I can almost see him. The one I found broken...whose mind had been shattered by staring into the unknown... The one whom I, by the power of Vesta, reshaped...into an agent of the eternal flame's own will... Quote2
