The Serpent's Curse encloses pages of lively ancient realities, mixed together with real life and emotions. The action of the novel takes place between years 106-108 A.D., in the newly established Roman province Dacia Felix, and has the Roman tribune Titus Avitius Germanus, a cohort commander, as its main character. The tribune finds himself caught up having to decide between the upright orders he receives from Rome and the objective realities he witnesses in Dacia. The dynamic battle scenes and the detailed descriptions of combat techniques and territorial-administrative organization of both armies fuse together with the strong emotions, the enthusiasm and the shaping of the numerous characters, building up this unique historical novel. The Serpent's Curse, cast over their treasures by the Dacian people, stands to be their ultimate defense in the face of the relentless greed of the Roman Empire.
