Opis

Life is not easy for the teenager, Darius Drusus. His parents haven't been getting along and their issues never seem to be resolved. One day at school Darius decides his fate lies beyond the long shadow cast by his father, the centurion. In a spontaneous act of outrage Darius has a fatal confrontation with his powerful father, the result of his actions has him running away. He's only fifteen, not nearly wise enough to make his way in this world alone. Destiny pulls Darius to the port town, Ostia, and the strange old rope maker who will change his life, his future, and his destiny. Ambrus trains Darius as a gladiator, taking care of the young lad and securing for him a future that will see him grow into a man without fear, without doubt, and with an outlet for his latent rage. Soon Darius is the only human standing between an angel and a devil, and is preordained to become the Auctoratus - the ultimate gladiator. In this compelling teenage adventure you will fall into Rome and its surrounds as if you too are living in 77 AD, pulled into the fight of Darius's life, training with him, meeting his allies, and learning about the mystery guardian who is far too wise to be merely a rope maker. Ambrus teaches him to fight, but an angel prepares him for life as a gladiator. An ex-slave can teach courage, he can learn wisdom from an old man who cared for him better than his father ever did, but it's up to him to find the strength to save this world from evil in the ultimate showdown. He had the courage to confront his father without any training, but will that trait be enough to destroy the devil Samael? This is his rite of passage from young adult to new adult, and his tale will resonate in the heart of every boy and every man. In his soul is a warrior ready for battle, ready to be a champion. From the heart of a boy comes the strength of a man.
