In \u003cstrong\u003eEmperor's Knife\u003c\/strong\u003e, Emperor Severus lies on his deathbed while his warring sons, Geta and Caracalla, feud in Britannia and ready themselves for a devastating power struggle that threatens to tear the empire apart. The trilogy reaches its explosive conclusion in \u003cstrong\u003eEmperor's Axe\u003c\/strong\u003e, where the fate of Rome and thousands of lives rests on the shoulders of one man. After murdering his own brother and seizing the throne for himself, Caracalla orders a brutal purge of Geta's remaining supporters, and Silus must navigate treachery, loyalty and violence at the very heart of the empire. Across all three books, Alex Gough brings the Severan dynasty vividly to life, a genuinely under-explored period of Roman history rich with intrigue, betrayal and warfare. Told with pace and authenticity, this series is ideal for readers who love immersive historical fiction grounded in real events and real emperors.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eComplete 3-book Imperial Assassin trilogy in reading order\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGripping Roman historical fiction set in the Severan dynasty\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBrand new paperback set, ideal for series collectors\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePerfect gift for fans of Simon Scarrow and Ben Kane\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCombines meticulous historical detail with fast-paced action\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFollows a compelling recurring hero, Roman scout Silus\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAlex Gough has a decades-long interest in Ancient Roman history.
