Morgan sends Jack and Annie back to the time of Marcus Aurelius on the northern border of the Empire where they meet kind soldiers, mean soldiers, and the emperor himself. —Michael Main
“So I hear,” said the emperor. “When I first met you, I thought you must live nearby in Carnuntum. But now I do not think that is so. Where is your home?”
“Frog Creek, Pennsylvania,” said Annie.
“Beyond the Danube,” said Jack.
A Roman soldier seems just as startled as young Jack and Annie when all three
