Romanitas

Romanitas - Thryft
Romanitas - Thryft

Intrigue and power in a futuristic Roman Empire.

"Romanitas could be a good read for fans of alternate history and political thrillers. The unique concept of a technologically advanced Roman Empire sets it apart, and the use of multiple characters and their intertwining storylines adds to the intrigue and suspense. Sophia McDougall's world-building capabilities are impressive, and readers will be drawn in by the character development and the unfolding plot twists."
