Críticas:
A vividly convincing picture of a past world... the prophecy link gives the narrative a forward momentum remarkable in a book that spans four centuries. This is a character based novel that leaves you wanting to spend more time with its major players. Epic historical fiction laced with a science fiction premise. (Jonathan Wright SFX)
"This is Baxter at his best, writing his historical fiction with an SF sensibility, and proving that the genres are closer in style and creative demands than many readers realise." (Jon Courtenay Grimwood THE GUARDIAN)
"A hugely entertaining and exquisitely researched new departure." (BBC FOCUS)
"It's an effective series of Roman vignettes, with a portrait of Claudius that's far enough from the 'I Claudius' archetype to be interesting. " (STARBURST)
"A meticulously researched and often compelling historical saga." (Gary K Wolfe LOCUS)

A woman gives birth to her child in a village in Northern England, the cold northern edge of the Roman Empire. As she struggles through a painful labour she begins to scream out a series of words in Latin. A language she has never heard before, much less spoken. One of the family recognises the words for what they are.
Only later does it become clear that the woman has spoken a prophecy: a prophecy that relates to the death of the Emperor Constantine;one that, if acted upon, will change the fate of the Roman Empire - and all of the future beyond it.
Stephen Baxter's new series takes ordinary individuals living at history's tipping points. How they act upon this prophecy, this glimpse of the future, could change their world forever.
The fourth volume reveals the nature of the prophecies and reveals a battle that is being fought down through the ages.
