Commedia

Abstract

dc:description.abstract

Commedia is a novel set in 410 AD during the collapse of the Roman Empire. The island of Britain has recently freed itself from Roman rule, and a small group of comedy actors find themselves caught up in a cultural struggle between the old Roman aristocracy and the new British nouveau riche. On a tour around Britain, the actors uncover a political and criminal plot that puts Britain in danger of invasion by Saxon mercenaries.
