What if The Gladiator smashed into The Highlander, and then careened into Jason Bourne? You would get The Last Roman: Exile.

Some debts you cannot repay, even if you live forever...

Seasoned imperial officer Marcus Sempronius Gracchus leads the 9th Roman Legion into a bloody battle against a fierce barbarian tribe. It's a battle he won't survive.

When he awakens three days later, clawing his way from a shallow grave, Marcus must face the reality of his new existence. He will never see the afterlife--but that won't stop him from dying time and again over the next 2,000 years.

But Marcus is not the only one cursed with eternal life, and they are determined to bring the world crashing to its knees. Forced to confront the only brother he has ever known, can Marcus prevent the inevitable and find redemption?

Follow the story of a man who should be dead, as he tries to save the world... and his soul.

The air was thick with the scent of dying books.

From a dark recess, Marcus watched an old monk move from case to case, his bony hands slipping the ancient volumes into openings on the various shelves.

5.0 out of 5 stars INTRIGUING
Reviewed in Canada on August 17, 2022

This work of fiction was written in such a way that one could almost believe it was true. A real page Turner. I was intrigued by the concept of earthly immortality as opposed to living forever in heaven or hell.

5.0 out of 5 stars An Eclectic Plot Line
Reviewed in Canada on September 24, 2021
There are two things that are quickly clear from B.K. Greenwood first novel: One, he can write really quite well, which is important for a story like this. Two, he does a great job passing along his love of history.

This is quite an eclectic story. It's a bit of a Liam Neeson revenge movie meets a Dan Brown book meets "The Robe" meets one or two other genres, but Greenwood makes it work for him. Some people won't like what he's done here, and the use of Jesus' ministry and legacy will be controversial to still others but Greenwood certainly shows his imagination, and due to Greenwood's writing skill it will be a creative choice disagreement rather than his skill to tell his story that people won't like.

For me, I can easily give this story a 5-star rating for Greenwood told his story well. However, as someone who is also a hobby historian, I very quickly had to change my expectation for historical accuracy which I can best describe as "Hollywood history". That's not to be mean but just setting expectations for others like me. The book spends the most historical time in ancient Rome and we see Greenwood applying modern understanding to an ancient world and missing some easy historical checks, for example, Cairo not existing for nearly 900 years after its appearance in the story. But this isn't a story that boasts of historical accuracy so there's no need to critique further. Don't look too deep and you'll cruise along this story and enjoy it like a Hollywood movie.

5.0 out of 5 stars This will carry you from start to finish...
Reviewed in Canada on June 23, 2021
It is not often one opens a book and feels within a couple of pages you are reading what could be the next bestseller. The premise and style of writing make this book something that should be made into a streaming service serial right now. Marcus is someone you don't want to mess with. He is a hero who carries a lot of baggage - about 2,000 years worth.

Edge of your seat excitement, action that is tablet-gripping, and dialogue at times that will even make you laugh...this book is for everyone. At times you wonder if wasn't inspired by some long-lived men who lived on High Lands. If DaVinci had a cold, he couldn't deal with the plot intricacies here.

Giftfully written, nicely paced, this book just flows. There is amazing chemistry between Sam and Marcus. Thomas is the bad guy the world has been waiting for. Every fan of every Brown book of codes will love this book. If you love to read a tale that will carry you from start to finish, buy this book. Recommended to everyone and recommend to every streaming service.

5.0 out of 5 stars So much going on!
Reviewed in Canada on September 9, 2021
I was totally sucked into this story. Watching the plot unfold through Marcus and Thomases eyes was quite amazing. Although I really prefer a linear timeline, the use of flashbacks to significant events did really help we understand several characters better and perhaps why they were doing what they did. Immortality, corruption, religion and an action packed struggle for power – what else can fiction lover ask for! The way things ended, I’m really looking forward to seeing the next novel.

I received an ARC and am voluntarily sharing my honest review.

This book is well written and will keep the reader captivated. The author introduced a new concept which gives the story an interesting twist. The Historical time line is very accurate. When I was about a 1/3rd of the way through the book, I ordered book 2.

The storyline is great with fantastic characters and a good twist that encourages you to read the next book. Some of the descriptions of the action scenes are a little drawn out and could be shorter, but I’m nitpicking. This story would make a great movie.
