No Word For Surrender

by Paul Butler

Slave traders think they’ve won the biggest prize ever—they’ve captured the Octavian and her captain, Gaius Valens. What the slavers don’t realize is that they will never, ever use the Octavian against Britannia.
Because if Valens can’t recapture the Octavian, he’ll destroy it.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

It is 478 A.D. and Britannia is in chaos.

The Empire and her legions have abandoned the island, leaving the inhabitants surrounded by enemies. Now, on an island already being overrun by Saxon invaders, a darker threat emerges.
Rogue alchemists, once held in check by Imperial agents, are free to experiment. Some alchemists create dangers out of ignorance, while others deliberately design new, terrifying weapons.
Gaius Valens and a handful of Britons will fight anyone or anything that threatens their people. Even when facing Saxon armies, exotic beasts and deadly machines, they won't give up.
Because they have one crucial thing that the alchemists and Saxon invaders don't—the long lost Imperial airship, the Octavian.
