- Synopsis
- The Lost Legion is a 620 page novel of historical fiction and heroic fantasy written by the established fantasy author H. Warner Munn and first published in 1979. Doubleday characterizes the work in these words: A vast tapestry of ancient times unfolds in this stirring tale of adventure and romance, whose setting reaches from the hills of Rome to the limits of the known world in the age of the Emperor Caligula. A crack Roman legion, fallen into disfavor with the mad Emperor, has been sent on a seemingly impossible quest: to follow the routes of the silk trade deep into Asia and there recover the standard of the Lost Legion, a Roman army that disappeared without a trace on that frontier one hundred years before. And so it happens that a body of unsung Roman foot soldiers will march out of history into the mists of legend and fable to the regions beyond the pale of Empire, and with them will walk an extraordinary young woman, driven across the face of half the earth by courage, pride, and passion to the fantastic fate that awaits them all at journey's end.
