The epic, two-part conclusion to the Portal to Nova Roma saga begins now!
The Rhine has been conquered.
Venice is safe from pirates - for now.
And the eastern kingdoms of France have acknowledged Alexander’s claim to the frontier… and the vast riches that come with it.
For the first time, Alexander has built something lasting.
An empire with walls, shipyards, and foundries.
Warships rise from the docks. Cannons thunder from the forges. Legionnaires stand ready - armed with rifles and revolvers - to face any army foolish enough to test them.
But in a brutal medieval world, peace is always an illusion.
When French “allies” prove far less trustworthy than promised, and the king in Paris turns his eyes - and his armies - eastward, Alexander is forced to act. New alliances must be forged.
Forged in war.
Sealed by trade and diplomacy.
Paid for in blood… and cannon fire.
As the Mediterranean descends into chaos, Alexander will uncover powerful new allies - and deadly new enemies - in a dangerous, post-apocalyptic world where ambition rules and survival is never guaranteed. With new lands to claim, new powers to master, and wars unlike any he has faced before, Alexander must push beyond every limit to protect his people… and himself.
The legendary empire-building sagas reaches its most explosive chapter yet. Drums of war sound. Empires collide. And the world stands on the brink.
Join Alexander and his legions in Portal to Nova Paris!

It's a great continuation of the the previous books. We get more doppelgangers, a few new magic systems, we get proper powercreep but not insane snowballing, we get to also see a few new story strands start.
If I had any criticism, it would be that not enough story threads are closed off; solve the Pirates, solve the Byzantines, AND MAKE THE EMPIRE MAKE SENSE. Imagine you look at a map and you get:
Miletus, 1200 kilometers of sea, then Venice, and a straight line up the Rhine.
Also, the God boons are great, should have killed a few more.
The ending is relatively decent as well.

I love this series so much ! Really one of the best for kingdom building !
I was a bit disapointed by this one because I felt like, the Author did not close some arc and it feels a bit Empty !
For example, the arc pirate was open and still not finished !
As well, i feel like the kingdom building part where he actually consolidate and build the empire is not evoked really.

With so many choices to read, it’s fantastic when you find something new and exciting. Portal to Nova Roma is certainly both of those things. Looking forward to the next book now!
