The Gladiator

At the end of a harrowing campaign, centurions Marco and Cato are sailing for Rome. Their journey is interrupted off the coast of Crete when an Earthquake strikes. The transport ship is severely damaged, and they are forced to limp ashore. The province is in chaos. Worse still the slave population has taken the opportunity to revolt. Against a strong legion, the renegades would have little chance, but the garrison troops are of poor quality. As Roman men and weaponry fall to the enemy, the balance of power is in danger of switching. Marco and Cato face a rebellion that could ignite an uprising across the Empire. Against them stands a powerful leader: Ajax. A gladiator who has fearlessly faced death daily, Ajax i driven by a desire for vengeance both political and personal. And he may
represent a force to great fro Rome to overcome.
