Quotes by Marc Flanagan (?)

“The Kalends are for men with credit, Decimius.’ Julius wiped a speck of dust from his pristine tunic. ‘My patron is a man of numbers, not mercy. The ledger must balance. If I return light, he becomes… difficult. And I have a habit of passing that difficulty on.”
― Marc Flanagan, A Slave's Vengeance
