Ladies, gentlemen, and non-binary peeps,
I am happy to announce that my latest book, Nadjela of Batela: Adventures in the Ancient Congo, is now available for purchase in digital format on the Amazon Kindle Store!
It is the first century AD, and the empire of Rome has grown into one of the largest in the history of the Mediterranean. Forged with cold sharp iron over the course of centuries, Roman authority now stretches as far afield as the floodplains of Egypt to the south, the sands of Judaea to the east, and the frigid woodlands of Gaul and Britannia to the north. Yet that is not enough for Rome. Their latest designs are on the equatorial heart of Africa, hoping to expand from there to conquer the whole continent and its innumerable riches…riches enough to support a campaign of world conquest.
There is one person who stands in the way of these ambitions. She is Nadjela, the proud and fierce Crown Princess of Batela. Together with her trusty leopard companion Ishaga, Nadjela will come face to face with both local adversaries and the wrath of the Roman Empire over the course of four adventures. Will her courage and martial ability, and the blessing of her god Nyambe the Creator, be enough to defend all of Africa and the world beyond?
