Taking your sixteen year old son into northern Syria to do a bit of 'off the books' archaeology is not the smartest move, and when it coincides with Daesh's latest offensive in the region it gets even less smart.That's two more people fleeing Daesh's murderous advance."Okay, now's the time to do a world class impersonation of a rock" said Edward, trying to blink the sweat from his eyes. His heart was hammering like Thor and his stomach was a tumble dryer. He took a deep breath. Why had he brought Luke with him. What a stupid...At the same time, four SAS troopers are returning with a civilian physicist from a mission to a top secret Syrian government research facility. Flying two helicopters, they are inexplicably ordered to divert to rescue the archaeologist and his son."We've got two civilians in imminent danger on the ground, we need you to divert, Bravo Alpha Five Three. Over" said Sentinel."God's sake, Sentinel! We're fifteen minutes from the border. Over" said Rebus.And then they find themselves thrown back in time to the late Roman Republic. "I was only trying to be..." started Edward, but then there was a blinding flash that filled the interior of the Chinook. The entire helicopter slammed violently to the side."Oh shit!" shouted Freddy, fighting with the controls "Bravo Alpha Five Three, this is Bravo Alpha Five Four, we're going down... hard!"There was no response.Can this small band of disparate characters survive in the ancient world? Can four SAS troopers stand up to the mighty Roman war machine? Will they find their way back to their own time? Why are water-melons yellow? And did they have Snickers bars in Roman times?This is a fast paced, page-turning story with plenty of plot, but it's really all about the characters and the humour. Unless you're immune to laughter, you'd better make sure your medical insurance is up to date. As one reader put it "I laughed so hard I needed a kidney transplant."This first novel in the series is a compilation of the newly re-written 12 episodes of the Recoil series - no longer short, but totalling more than 97,000 words.

The fall of the Roman Empire was the denouement of a long and dramatic confrontation between powerful ideological forces and legendary men. R. A. Lafferty captures the true meaning of both, and examines the people, places, ideas and feelings that led to this epic struggle. Rome's demise was not a simple case of fierce barbarians sacking and subduing a decadent, crumbling city. The author has skillfully balanced the turmoil and illusions of a mighty, dying Empire against the vitality of the aggressive Huns, Vandals, and above all, the Goths. The result is one of the most perceptive and stimulating historical accounts ever written. This is history told and read for sheer pleasure: exciting, splendid and complex. The Fall of Rome is a story of the men and women who made things happen, who were as awesome, poignant, and in some cases, as savage as the era itself.

The History of the Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire is a book of history which traces the trajectory of Western civilization (as well as the Islamic and Mongolian conquests) from the height of the Roman Empire to the fall of Byzantium. The work covers the history of the Roman Empire, Europe, and the Catholic Church from 98 to 1590 and discusses the decline of the Roman Empire in the East and West: I. The first period may be traced from the age of Trajan and the Antonines, when the Roman monarchy, having attained its full strength and maturity, began to verge towards its decline; and will extend to the subversion of the Western Empire, by the barbarians of Germany and Scythia, the rude ancestors of the most polished nations of modern Europe. This extraordinary revolution, which subjected Rome to the power of a Gothic conqueror, was completed about the beginning of the sixth century. II. The second period commences with the reign of Justinian, who, by his laws, as well as by his victories, restored a transient splendor to the Eastern Empire. It will comprehend the invasion of Italy by the Lombards; the conquest of the Asiatic and African provinces by the Arabs, who embraced the religion of Mahomet; the revolt of the Roman people against the feeble princes of Constantinople; and the elevation of Charlemagne, who, in the year eight hundred, established the second, or German Empire of the West III. The last and longest period includes about six centuries and a half; from the revival of the Western Empire, till the taking of Constantinople by the Turks, and the extinction of a degenerate race of princes. Edward Gibbon (1737-1794) was an English historian and Member of Parliament.

476 A.D. The Roman Empire, staggered by centuries of barbarian onslaughts and riddled with corruption, now faces its greatest challenge—not only to its power and prestige, but to its very existence… He reduced Concordia, Altinum, and Patavium to ashes, captured Verona and Milan. He was the most dangerous enemy Rome had ever known. The legacy of Attila the Hun, once thought destroyed on the battlefield, has re-emerged to defy the power of the Western World. Now it’s the sons of Attila’s chief military commanders who are waging battle with one another as the dramatic confrontation between the Emperor and Rome’s barbarian conqueror leads to the thrilling conclusion that becomes the end of the greatest civilization on earth.
