Greetings,
I can't remember if I have read this book or not, it was the synopsis that interested me....late Roman, Arthurian etc
It seems that VMM was writing screenplays, but as his Alexander books are also being made into a film by Dino de Laurentis, it could be for that. Supposedly the resulting new Alexander film will be more 'authentic' than Oliver Stone's Alexander which I loved and certainly portrayed the gory reality of battle as well as the glory.
If that is the case, let's hope that The Last Legion is also filmed with authenticity in mind...I wonder who the historical adviser is ?
As Letifer says.... Era fix is needed....!
Regards
Arthes

The enemy is less likely to get wind of an advance of cavalry, if the orders for march were passed from mouth to mouth rather than announced by voice of herald, or public notice. Xenophon
