The Last Romans

El Cid tries assassinating King Gerontius, who asks Max's help in suppressing a rebellion in inner Iberia. Taking the mountain stronghold of Cuenca will be a giant bitch, but Max specializes in those. The Yankee fleet brought 50,000 elite troops for the Board meeting in Greenwich with the five emperors, but they won't help Max against King Victor, his Royal Mistress, Queen Victoria, the Black Prince, or the Monster of Manchester. Theo has a few secrets and Magnus feels threatened. Kapisa tries avoiding Iris and her old lover during Max's new wedding.
