But as a younger son who has never been given any responsibility in his life, he fears he isn’t up to the task. The chance to prove himself when the stakes are as high as they could get is irresistible, though, and he is ready to become the hero he has always wanted to be. Until temptation winks at him. Actress Violetta Roan is the talk of the Roman theater world for her daring and bold stage presence. But Violetta’s persona hides a darker secret. She has more of a connection with Thomas than first meets the eye, and when Violetta and Thomas team up on a covert mission, sparks fly. Is there more to the passion between them or is Violetta just playing another role? When the truth is revealed and Thomas finally has a chance to rescue his brother and prove himself worthy, their newfound love is put to the test. Can they complete the mission, or will the dark forces that have been chasing the McGoverns since Paris finally win?

Roman Twilight by Elizabeth May Pdf

"It is five years since Quintus fought his last battle. It has been a quiet time, spent breeding horses. An old friend’s death gives him an urge to travel and see what’s left of the Roman Empire; whose army he served so faithfully. His itchy feet take him through Western Europe during the fifth century. A year on the road will see him go from honoured old soldier to slave and then back to respected general. In his adventures he meets the characters who shaped those years, St. Patrick, Niall of the Nine Hostages, King Arthur’s father and the ancestors of the founders of France. Europe is in upheaval. Goths, Franks and Huns are all pushing west while the Irish push east. Meanwhile what's left of the Roman Empire is in rebellion. Can the old general save them from themselves?"--www.amazon.com.

Roman Sunset by Elizabeth May Pdf

It was a time when a civilization that had survived for 350 years suddenly collapsed, almost overnight. Trade, government, education and the rule of law ceased. This was Britain at the beginning of the fifth century. Roman legions left to fight the Emperor's wars in Europe and raiders invaded Britain, devastating the land, burning crops, slaughtering young and old alike and taking the rest as slaves. Retired soldiers and their families find safety in an old cavalry fort after their farms have been destroyed. They take in refugees including a village elder and a brewer and his daughter escaping from a sacked city.They all know the raiders will return. To survive, they must resolve their differences, work together and fight back against their enemies.

Sunday in Roman Paganism by Robert Leo Odom Pdf

With most of the Christian world honoring Sunday as their day of worship, the question of its origin becomes important. Over the past hundred years much has been written about the use of the week among ancient pagan peoples. However, little has been done to compile such historical material into an easily accessible book for the general public. Robert Leo Odom for years has conducted special research on the Sabbath-Sunday question. In Sunday in Roman Paganism, he leads readers through the pages of history showing the rise of the planetary week and its day of the Sun in the heathenism of the Roman world during the early centuries of the Christian era. This book is not a capsulated history of Sunday as a church festival, but rather the history of the planetary week as it was known and used in the pagan world, and to show whether or not its day of the Sun was then regarded by pagans as being sacred to their Sun-god.

Wolves of Rome by Krešimir Vuković Pdf

The Roman foundation myth has been the subject of classical scholarship for centuries. But much in the story of Romulus and Remus remains unexplained. This is the first English language book-length study of the Lupercalia, a religious festival central to understanding both the Roman foundation myth and the history of Rome. The festival of the Lupercalia was a male initiation ritual and shares a number of traits with similar rituals across the world. The agonistic elements in the story of Romulus and Remus and the Lupercalia can be compared to a number of Vedic rituals and traced back to a common Indo-European prehistory. The Lupercalia celebration remained a central annual event throughout the history of Rome and reflected political and social life in the city. Caesar used it to stage a refusal of kingship and Augustus restored its initiatory aspect, which continued in the period of the Empire. It survived all attempts of Christian prohibition to appear in the form of a carnival that criticized the pope in the late 5th century. In sum, the book offers a new interpretation of the Roman foundation myth and the Lupercalia. It follows the transformation of a unique ritual from its Indo-European roots through Roman history to late antiquity.
