Here’s a list of the main characters in Iron.
Historical Figures
Agricola—A Roman soldier and politician who conquered Northern Britain and Wales. Born to a political family of senatorial rank in France, Agricola began his military career as a Banded Tribune under Governor Gaius Suetonius Paulinus. Tacitus claims Agricola invaded Ireland, the central premise of The Iron Between trilogy.
Suetonius—Gaius Suetonius Paulinus, known in the histories as Suetonius–not to be confused with the historian of the same name–was governor of Britannia during the Boudican revolt. He is most known for defeating Boudica’s army despite overwhelming odds in favour of the Iceni queen.
Catus Decianus—The Procurator of Britannia during the Boudican revolt; when Nero ordered an investigation into the cause of the rebellion, Decianus fled to Gaul, providing this author with the premise for Hammer, the first book in The Iron Between trilogy.
Domitian—The youngest son of Emperor Vespasian; when Vespasian was declared emperor, Domitian was in Rome and seemed to have taken some responsibility for the state’s government.
Mucianus—The man Vespasian nominated as his deputy during his absence, possibly causing friction with his youngest son, who had assumed the role.
