About this listen
An uncertain future in a new past.
During the test flight of a prototype faster-than-light craft, Lt. Commander Ky is flung into an ancient past that never existed. Rome has fallen, defeated by the mighty Carthaginian Empire, its survivors chased off the continent and onto what had been the remote province of Britannia.
Hounded by the Carthaginians bent on conquering the known world, Rome is on the verge of destruction. Stranded and alone, except for a tactical AI implanted in his head, Ky has lost everything and must find a way to live in a world different than anything he's ever known.
For Ky to survive, he needs a new home. For the Romans to survive, they need a miracle. But can a man from the future work with people so far in his past, or is this match doomed to failure?

Interestingly different
A really great read. I was disappointed when it finished. The narrator did a great job bringing the characters to life, which can make or break a good story. I will look fwd to Book 2.

New author did well
Book is good but has a few flaws. Narrator is awesome and is cast extremely well here. My only real issue with book 1 is the repeated rhetoric how he can't explain himself due to whatever reason. Aside from that the AI companion is by far the most realistic and unique one I have come across that kept me thinking.
The book does go straight into the deep end which while I feel is a bit of a missed opportunity, but it does a great job at being grounded instead of leaning on tropes/ stereotypes. Makes it feel much closer to reality.
As of now I am nearly done with book 2 which is interesting. Its not a page turner all the way through but it has some good moments in there.
I will check out the narrators other works due to his awesome performance here, and I look forwards to what comes next.
