"The Nova Invicta Legion, charged with protecting the last Emperor of Rome, is attacked by the babarians. In the space of a few hours all is lost. The Imperial family is excecuted and the young Emperor deposed and imprisoned. The Roman Empire lies in ruins. But not all Romans are dead. From the battlefield a band of seemingly immortal legionaires arises. They are joined by a warrioress who emerges like a magical apparition. They are the Last Legion. Risking their lives, they attempt a desperate mission: to free the Emperor and his tutor. They guide the last Caesar in a dramatic journey of escape, which takes them through a devastated Europe and on to their ultimate destinies."
