“the leather thong binding his”
Robert Fabbri, Masters of Rome

“remained at her side, limp and swaying. Yosef pointed his staff at her so that the tip touched her blood-streaked chest; she stopped. Vespasian shook with fear and cold in spite of the heat emanating from the goddess’s spring; he was vaguely aware of Magnus next to him muttering prayers to every god that he could think of, even Yosef’s. Cogidubnus had raised his Wheel of Taranis and was beseeching the god to strike down this apparition with cleansing lightning.”
Robert Fabbri, The Complete Vespasian Boxset

“I’ve never heard someone standing knee-deep in shit consider themselves lucky,’ Vespasian observed,”
Robert Fabbri, Rome's Executioner
