Roma Eterna

The stories feel like they hinge on pivotal turns—I'm curious what guided the choices behind these alternate scenarios and how much research went into them.

The stories often highlight the rise and fall of empires, which made me reflect on the impermanence of power. Am I the only one who found this both inspiring and a bit sad?

The mix of genres gave the stories a unique flavor, but I wonder how the author decided where to draw the line between plausibility and imagination.
