SUMMARY:
The Aliens Were Looking For a Few Good Fighters, Warriors Who Could Be Brave Without Blasters, and Content With Shields of Bronze ... What They Got Were Romans ... Gaius Vibulenas: From a raw kid, he became an accomplished soldier-and a leader of men. Quartilla: She was everything a man could want-you would never guess she wasn't human. Pompilius Niger: He learned young that the worst dangers a soldier faces come from those who give him his orders. Clodius Afer: A veteran, he didn't ask questions-until his alien masters forced the answers on him. The aliens knew that in these primitives they possessed the finest low-tech soldiers in the galaxy. What they did not understand was the madness of enslaving a Roman legion and leaving them with swords in their hands.
