The Seven Hills is the second book in an alternate history series where Hannibal's campaign against Rome was successful. Set a hundred years after Rome's defeat by the armies of Carthage, The Seven Hills begins with the stunning news that the Roman legions have just retaken the entire Italian peninsula and are now laying siege to Sicily. Their goal is nothing less than the total destruction of Carthage, and a full restoration of the Roman Empire.
