Gaius Julius Caesar-Dictator Perpetuo, conqueror of Gaul, master of the known world-walks into the Senate on the Ides of March. He will not walk out.\u003cbr\u003eBut he will not leave dead, either.\u003cbr\u003eWhen Casca fails the first strike and Mark Antony storms in with the guard, Caesar is left suspended between life and death. During months of convalescence, the most powerful man in the world experiences something he has never known: absolute helplessness. And in that silence, he reads. He thinks. He remembers Brutus' gaze among the conspirators. He understands that an empire held up only by the sword dies the moment the sword breaks.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eThe March Scar\u003c\/b\u003e is the story of a transformation: from the arrogant general who enters the Senate expecting adulation, to the wounded statesman who learns that immortality lies not in conquests but in institutions. From the Rome of legions to the Rome of ideas.\u003cbr\u003eBut ideas have enemies. The Senate feels its power threatened. The generals feel their purpose questioned. The priests see their gods explained. And in the shadows, the conspirators who failed once wait for a second chance.\u003cbr\u003eCaesar has fifteen years to change the world before his body-never fully recovered-finally betrays him. It is not enough time.\u003cbr\u003eIt will have to be enough.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Eduardo Kwiatkowski\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9798247329602\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Independently Published\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 02\/07\/2026\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 370\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.98lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.92d","brand":"Eduardo Kwiatkowski","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48743103529215,"sku":"9798247329602","price":21.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_0ca471df-49cb-4fb9-957b-9485bd4014ed.jpg?v=1782449798","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/pax-machina-trilogy-eduardo-kwiatkowski-9798247329602","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
