'Quisque suae fabulae heros est, ' said the cat, and truer words were never spoken. At least where the conspirator Scribonianus is concerned - he's certainly a legend in his own mind. The Gheorghenis are far more interested in other people, like their philosopher neighbour Pertinax. Or their furniture-and-music-making Greek housemates. Or, in fact, the local wildlife. The Gheorghenis, extra-dimensional aliens, are curious by nature and like to reconnoitre their environment - which happens to be the backwater Roman town of Potentia in 42 CE. Reconnoitering is a lot easier when your shapeshifting abilities encompass the whole animal kingdom. Snacks are more varied, too. What is Scribonianus ready to do to become emperor? Will Manius Flaccus Pertinax justify his father's faith in him? Will Cleopas ever stop playing the hydraulis and make some tasteful furniture? What portents are revealed by the sacred chickens? How do you pronounce 'Gheorgheni', anyway? These and other questions you didn't know you were asking will be addressed as the Roman Gheorghenis explore Life in Potentia.
