    About this series

    Civil war rages across the fractured Roman Empire in the 1850s. Rightful heir to the throne Constantine Tiberius Appius has successfully repelled the Mongolian invasions, but at a cost. The usurper Sabinus, Constantine's uncle, rules in Rome, and his forces press through the shattered loyalist defenses, stripped to support Constantine's campaign in the east. Loyalist and rebel forces converge in Thrace, and as casualties mount, new weapons of war are unleashed upon friend and foe alike. Constantine and his closest allies, the men of the XIII Germania, find themselves once again thrust into the spotlight. As the loyalists march towards the inevitable final battle, they face the true question of war - how much are they willing to sacrifice for victory? The fate of the Empire rests with a handful of common legionnaires, led by the last true scion of a dynasty stretching over a thousand years, in the final novel of the Steam Empire Chronicles - Laurel Emperor.

      The barbarian invasions were withstood, and the Roman Empire emerged stronger than ever. Now the leader in a worldwide industrial revolution, Rome's might has allowed it to prosper for centuries, while the steam powered warmachines of the Imperial legions keep hostile neighbors at bay. Seeking to escape the endless toil of the factory, a young man joins the army. His commander works to prove himself, away from the power and corrupting influence of his rich and mighty family. Amid a backdrop of revolution, espionage and assassination, how can a green and unprepared cohort withstand the onslaught of forces aiming a deathblow at the largest empire ever created? A fast-paced adventure story that brings the Roman Empire to life, as you've never seen it before. Alternate History meets Steampunk Adventure in Daniel Ottalini's first novel, Brass Legionnaire.

      Vengeance was delivered, and Rome was triumphant. At least, that's what the men of the XIII Germania believe. But their commanding officer knows better. Constantine Tiberius Appius defeated the Nortlanders in their capital, but now faces a greater challenge: the overwhelming power of the Mongol Empire. While his allies in Rome struggle to gather support for the weakened Roman army, his enemies plot. In a surprise assault, the Mongols push through the eastern provinces, leaving death and destruction in their wake. Outnumbered and outmaneuvered, Constantine and his men forge new partnerships and undertake a risky gambit. Can they turn back the unending waves of Mongol men? Or will the east be lost? Find out in IRON TRIBUNE.
