Rubicon by HWA authors

20 July 2019 By Editor

Ten acclaimed authors. Ten gripping stories.

Immerse yourself in Ancient Rome through a collection of thrilling narratives, featuring soldiers, statesmen and spies.

Read about some of your favourite characters from established series, or be introduced to new writers in the genre.

The stories in Rubicon are, like Rome, diverse and intriguing – involving savage battles, espionage, political intrigue and the lives of ordinary – and extraordinary – Romans, such as Ovid, Marcus Agrippa and a young Julius Caesar.

This brand new collection, brought to you by the Historical Writers’ Association, also includes interviews with each author.

Find out more about their writing processes and what attracts them to the Roman world.

View Ancient Rome through fresh eyes.

Authors and stories featured in Rubicon:

Nick Brown – Maker of Gold
Gordon Doherty – Eagles in the Desert
Ruth Downie – Alter Ego
Richard Foreman – A Brief Affair
Alison Morton – Mystery of Victory
Anthony Riches – The Invitation
Antonia Senior – Exiles
Peter Tonkin – The Roman
LJ Trafford – The Wedding
SJ Turney – The Praetorian

Rubicon is published by Sharpe Books as an ebook on 2 July, 2019, and in paperback on 16 July.

Historia has a readers’ treat for you – LJ Trafford’s Rubicon interview is available for anyone to read, free. And we’ve published her Rubicon short story, The Wedding, in three parts.
