About this listen
Born into a sterile, alien-controlled facility, young Valerius and his cohort are the descendants of Roman legionaries, abducted from Earth and subjected to relentless training by the enigmatic Progenitors. Their "glorious purpose" is to serve as elite warriors in the Progenitor Ascendancy, a vast galactic empire. As Valerius navigates the brutal realities of their upbringing—from nutrient paste and incessant indoctrination to deadly combat simulations—he clings to the fragmented whispers of his Terran heritage, of Roman honor and valor, passed down by his grandfather, a former Centurion.
Their first off-world deployment to the hostile jungle planet of Xylos tests their limits, forcing them to confront not only a resistant alien species but also the chilling moral compromises demanded by their Progenitor masters. As Valerius, alongside perceptive Livia and volatile Drusus, grapples with the cost of compliance and the true nature of their enslavement, a silent rebellion begins to stir within the ranks of the newly designated Nova Legio. They are the Progenitors' perfect weapons, yet the indomitable human spirit and the echoes of Rome prove harder to extinguish than their creators imagined.
