The trilogy that began in Roma and Empire comes to a climax with DOMINUS. Publication day: June 29, 2021.

Dominus recounts the fortunes of the Pinarius family from the reign of Marcus Aurelius, the model of the philosopher-king, up to Constantine, who alters history forever by making Christianity the state religion of Rome. Along the way they encounter plague, conflagrations, the near-capture of Rome by barbarians, and a dynasty of women who for generations are the true, behind-the-scenes rulers of the empire.
