Roma Eterna
Roma Eterna | Robert Silverberg
1 post | 1 read | 2 to read
No power on Earth can resist the might of Imperial Rome, so it has been and so it ever shall be. Through brute force, terror, and sheer indomitable will, her armies have enslaved a world. From the reign of Maximilianus the Great in A.U.C. 1203 onward through the ages -- into a new era of scientific advancement and astounding technologies -- countless upstarts and enemies arise, only to be ground into the dust beneath the merciless Roman bootheels. But one people who suffer and endure throughout the many centuries of oppressive rule dream of the glorious day that is coming -- when the heavens themselves will be opened to them…and the ships they are preparing in secret will carry them on their "Great Exodus" to the stars.

This one was a struggle. Alternate history of what would happen if Rome had not fallen. Goes through different periods of history through short stories. It was interesting enough at the beginning of the book. Towards the end it definitely drags on. I had to fight to finish it.
