Aurelia Omnibus: A rivalry across decades with only one winner (Roma Nova Thriller Series) Kindle Edition

4.5 out of 5 stars 7 ratings

20th century Roma Nova – powered by the Roman mindset, ruled by women

AURELIA – Aurelia Mitela, Praetorian soldier, spy and councillor in the 1960s is courageous, loyal and passionate, but her life-long nemesis Caius stalks her, intent on destroying her. And if he can use her unorthodox lover or her child against her, he will not hesitate.

NEXUS – A novella. A favour for a friend or a bullet in the heart? A spate of high-level killings wrenches Aurelia Mitela away from helping a friend into leading a pan-European investigation. Badly beaten in Rome, she is sent an ultimatum: “Back off or your lover will die.” But Aurelia is a Roma Novan and they never give up…

INSURRECTIO – Roma Nova in the early 1980s. Imperial councillor Aurelia is frustrated by a ruler afraid to rule and a nationalist movement surging under a charismatic leader who wants to destroy Aurelia on his way to seizing power. Horrified when her daughter is brutally attacked in a riot, Aurelia rallies resistance to the growing instability. But is it too late to save Roma Nova from meltdown and herself from death at the hand of her lifelong enemy?

RETALIO – Recovering from a near fatal shooting, Aurelia chafes at her enforced exile. Her duty and passion fire her determination to liberate her homeland despite her lover Miklós's desire to protect her. Will she ever see her beloved Roma Nova again?
-------------

Roman fiction brought up to the 20th century, these stories guarantee noble ideals, passionate love, desperate choices, sacrifice, constant twists and turns and snappy dialogue with a dash of romance and humour in a timeline not so different from our own...

    I’ve now read six of the Roman Novels and highly recommend this series of intelligent, page-turning thrillers with the flavour of Ancient Rome in a society with modern weapons. If you want to dive into this series, it works to start with the Aurelia trilogy, because it is set before the first three books, and these three are SO good!
    Alison Morton writes so well of military strategy and one-to-one combat that I wonder whether she has been part of a revolutionary coup… or rather, given the Roman values of loyalty to country, part of taking back a country usurped by a tyrannous villain, as in this trilogy. The depiction of revolution and an overthrown government are as convincing on a broad scale as on the personal level of the characters we care about. And we really do care! I had to get the hankie out at some parts.
    Aurelia is now one of my favourite characters. From the moment she took over leadership of the powerful Mitela family, while still grieving for her mother, to her mature sorties in military combat for love of her country, this is no ordinary heroine. She has depth and passion, both for the man she loves and for the values of her Roma Nova homeland, which has been usurped by her vile cousin. We see her as a young woman out of her depth, a skilled combat soldier, an experienced politician and a woman torn between duty and personal ties. Even in her lowest moments at the hands of her brutal enemy, she has an integrity that keeps us on her side. She is not perfect and her patrician arrogance makes you want to kick her sometimes. She can be patronising and insensitive but her emotions feel as real as her high level responsibilities.
    You won’t ever forget Aurelia!

    5.0 out of 5 stars Riveting Series
    Reviewed in the United Kingdom on September 26, 2024
    I thoroughly enjoyed this series - experiencing Aurelia Mitela's thrills; some less-exciting incidents; and other downright scary happenings in Roma Nova and beyond. The pace was non-stop attention gripping, the characters skillfully portrayed and the stories so very well-written. Did I like the baddie? No redeeming qualities as far as I was concerned, but his machinations certainly held the whole series plot (s) together. And the ending? It almost made the tears drop.

    5.0 out of 5 stars The splendid second tranche of the ROMA NOVA series
    Reviewed in the United Kingdom on May 26, 2024
    I’ve been a fan of the Roma Novel novels ever since the first. There are over a dozen of them now and all are set in the most convincing and internally consistent universe I’ve encountered in fiction. Their point of departure from the universe we live in is that a remnant of the Roman Empire survived as an independent state from the era of its all up to our own day. The novels so far can be classed in three separate tranches – those set in the early twenty-first century, those set in the 1960s and 80s and – most recently – those set in the fifth century A.D at time of foundation of the ROMA NONA Republic. Regardless of period, the plots are riveting combinations of intrigue and hard-boiled action. Thet are all the more credible since the Roma Nova universe has the same social and economic structures, and the technologies of the same periods in the actual world we live in. There are no science-fiction style scientific or technological breakthroughs involved.

    The Aurelia box-set deals with a political crisis in the 1960s – 1980s periods that almost destroyed ROMA Nova. It portrays a snake-pit of feuding, faction-forming and distrust in which the heroine must weld a coherent and effective force together that’s capable of restoring peace and justice in her county. As with all Ms. Morton’s work, there is a strong streak of realism – not just as regards specific incidents but in the acceptance – too rare in fiction – that life is brutal and unfair and that very bad things indeed happen to the weak and worthy unless there is a strong commitment to resisting oppression.

    The story-line that links the individual novels is gripping and this entire box-ser can be read in isolation to the other two sets of novels. If you haven’t yet read about ROMA NOVA, you’ve a pleasure in store!
