Tiberius et Gallisena Ultima

Tiberius is on the run. Fleeing from an attacking Germanic tribe, the soldier finds himself separated from the Roman army.

Suddenly, he finds himself receiving help from an unexpected source—a magical druid priestess (a “Gaul” in his language, a “Celt” in hers).

With her help, can Tiberius survive the punishing landscape of Gaul, evade the pursuing Germanic tribe, and make his way home to see Rufus, Piso, and Agrippina once again?

Storybase Books publishes books that help beginners learn Latin and Greek by reading. Our novellas use limited vocabulary to tell engaging stories that are accessible to novice- and intermediate-level readers. Meanings for many words are provided in footnotes, and a full index of all words, word forms, and phrases is included in each novella. Readers can thus read each novella on their own, with others, or with a class.
