We find them caught up in the madness of a chain of events which will eventually lead to the fall of Roman Britain, and the descent into the Dark Ages.","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":68282539475167,"sku":"9781913762506","price":17.87,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0813\/8958\/4607\/files\/fbwxIhH6an9781913762506.webp?v=1792767091"},{"product_id":"britannia-the-warlords-paperback","title":"Britannia: The Warlords - Paperback","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eTHE END OF ROMAN BRITAIN CONCLUDES.\u003c\/b\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ci\u003eDid the Romans leave Britain, or did Britain leave Rome?\u003c\/i\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThe death throes of Rome are resounding in every corner of the Empire.
