Britannia Books in Order

Four soldiers return from a supply hunt to find their Hadrian's Wall outpost destroyed in 367 AD. Fleeing south from a coordinated invasion, they become celebrated heroes through an invented account that complicates their struggle to survive Roman Britain's crisis.

As Roman authority weakens in Britain, the surviving Heroes of the Wall face invasion, political treachery, and private upheaval. Justinus defends the frontier while his companions encounter challenges tied to imperial ambition and the uncertain future of the province.

Following Magnus Maximus's failed rebellion, Roman Britain faces deepening disorder and mutiny. Justinus struggles to defend the province while his companions confront religious tensions, northern threats, and changing fortunes as the world they have known approaches its collapse.

This nonfiction companion examines the historical background of the Britannia novels, especially the fading of Roman rule between 367 and 415 AD. Written evidence and archaeology provide a picture of a poorly documented period and the society facing profound change.
