How This Hero Book Works
You are not just “picking options”; you are deciding what kind of man the secutor becomes under Roman control: a calculating survivor, a brutal crowd-pleaser, or a fighter who risks everything for a shard of honor.
You read each scene normally. When the secutor faces a decision, you simply click or tap one of the “Choose this…” links at the end of the section. The story immediately jumps you to the next scene — no page-turning, no searching for section numbers, and no manual navigation.
- Click or tap to choose — no manual navigation
- Designed for multiple playthroughs
- Different choices unlock different paths and endings
Inside the Lanista Chronicles Series
Start here. Shape a legacy that will follow you from the dust of the arena to the heart of the empire.
Future volumes will expand your sphere of influence: new arenas, new factions, and new responsibilities that build on the relationships and rivalries you establish in this first book. Decisions you make here — how you treat your gladiators, how you negotiate with patrons, which risks you take in the arena — shape the network of allies and enemies you carry forward.
Each volume is written to stand alone as a full, replayable adventure, but reading them in order lets you experience the long-term consequences of your choices as a lanista.
