The men of the Long-Range Reconnaissance Patrol - Stagg, Wolverine, Mopar, Marvel Kim, and Gonzales - are commando-style soldiers, called “Lurps” for short. Five men, completely dependent on one another. Proud to the point of arrogance.

Il suo regno nasce nella menzogna e nella corruzione, eppure sarà lui a condurre Roma alla gloria imperitura, sconfiggendo nemici impavidi e progetti espansionistici e scrivendo un'epopea mirabolante, nella quale si intrecciano aspirazione e brama di potere, sangue e passione, amore e desideri inconfessabili.
