Eagle in the Snow Book Talk

Eagle In The Snow Book Talk

The Eagle in the Snow is a novel about the fall of Rome and the decline of Western Civilization. It explores the circumstances that lead to the barbarian hordes overrunning Gaul, which is present day France. The main character, Maximus, is a Roman general assigned to defend the borders between Gaul, and Germania with a single legion. To give a scope about how badly Maximus is screwed, he needs at least eighty thousand men to hold the Rhine River properly, he has six. Maximus will have to deal with traitorous allies, corrupted administrators, religious persecution, and countless angry barbarians by any means necessary. And all for an empire that does not care for them or its survival. This is Rome’s last stand, and it will fight to its last breath even if it is unwilling to.
