Summary

12 BC. - Marcus Vipsanius Agrippa Postumus is born in the most prosperous period of the Roman Empire, in which in power is its founder Augustus himself.
The son of the famous Agrippa, he can also claim membership to the Julio-Claudian dynasty on his mother's side.
With Augustus struggling with a scarcity of direct heirs, everything would suggest a bright future for Agrippa within the dynasty.
But his very existence will prove to be a problem not only for the Caesar's plans, but also and especially for those who aspire to alter them. Determined to assert his independence and freedom in a court plagued by conspiracies and subterfuges, Agrippa will endure countless trials and suffer as many abuses.
Until when, with Rome now seemingly unattainable, he will have a new opportunity to choose between eternal glory and oblivion.

    Under the Nazis, conventional science and a range of fringes sciences were legitimate areas for research and development. Unorthodox ideas and projects that were too outrageous for other governments received funding. During the last six months of the war, it seemed obvious the Germans had been crushingly defeated, but in spite of the military situation, Hitler continued to believe that victory would be achieved. He repeatedly told his advisors and inner circle that Germany possessed Wunderwaffen - miracle weapons - that would turn the tide and give the Germans victory.
