The Man From Rome
by Dylan James Quarles
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
GENRE: Urban Fantasy
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
BLURB:
Rome
is a city like no other, protected by a man like no other.
He is the unnamed Immortal, the Man from Rome, and he is under attack.
An agent of his secret order has been murdered, her tongue ripped out, her throat coated in molten silver. The killing is meant to be a message, a warning that old enemies have resurfaced to punish the Man for the sins of his past.
Forced to retaliate, the Man sets in motion a sequence of events which pit an American thief, a Roman policewoman, and a fallen Olympian against one another in all-out war. The streets of Rome become a battleground where the supernatural clash with the mortal, and the Eternal City bears witness to yet another chapter in its storied history of violence.
Vengeance reigns supreme in this, the newest Novel from Dylan James Quarles.

EXCERPT:
Light filtered in through the painters cloth, becoming
diffused and shallow. As if in preparation for a slaughter, the floor was
covered in newspaper, and the tables were draped with black plastic. Overhead,
the light fixtures had been removed so that their wires dangled in stringy
noose-like clumps.
Taking all of this in, Cato let the door swing shut behind
him. The latch gave an audible click, and was instantly echoed by the snap of a
Zippo lighter. Cato started with surprise and turned. In the far corner of the
room, a candle had been lit, casting illumination upon a table laden with food.
Already seated and waiting for him, a man in a three-piece chestnut suit smiled
through the blue haze of his cigarette.
Cato blinked, and a pair of golden-eyes blinked back at him.
Like memory made manifest, the Benefactor’s unmistakable face came into view.
Cato gaped.
“But—but—you look—”
Tapping his cigarette into an ashtray, the Benefactor held
up a hand for silence. Cato faltered and the words died in his throat.
“Before you finish that sentence,” spoke the Benefactor.
“May I interject a simple request?”
Physically shaken by the timbre of the Man’s voice, Cato did
all that he could just to nod.
“I can see that you are…disturbed by me, Cato—disturbed by
what you see. Yet I beg of you, please refrain from uttering that which I have
heard more times than I care to remember. Spare history the doom of
repetition.”
