About

Note for Editors/Service Promoters: I’m not seeking editing or paid writing services at this time. Please refrain from soliciting as I prefer to keep all feedback and discussion on Royal Road so the community can benefit. I'll still respond to your comments, and I won't delete my responses, thank you!  Dustin 📖 A World of Roma Background: Throughout human history, empires have risen and fallen. Rome was supposed to be no different. But Rome never fell. And now, in the 21st century, it rules over a fragile world balanced on the edge of chaos. In Volume I: Solar Replay , the story begins with Ampelius in the city of Vetera (Seattle in our timeline). When the sky tears open and plunges the city into darkness—followed by the unnatural eruption of Mount Nerva—he’s forced into a fight for survival against forces far larger than rebellion. But Ampelius’ story is only the beginning. Each volume in the trilogy shifts perspective, following new lives bound together in Rome’s shadow, weaving into one larger saga. Because something is coming. Something Rome is not prepared for. 📚 Planned Volumes (Updated 7/8/2026) A World of Roma: Solar Replay — Complete (~100%) · 96k words written (Total) Note: Forward (Volume II) will conclude this fiction.  News : I’m working to finish my final set of classes for my bachelor’s degree in Military History by end of this month, and on top of that I'm also preparing to move into a new home by in early August. I will do my best to upload a chapter on Mondays, but chances are I won't be able to until mid August. I will do my best to keep this gap as short as possible, but I can't promise anything.  That said, once Forward is completed, I plan to begin working on a new project set in a completely different universe, with a new series called Dead Era . But don’t worry, A World of Roma is far from over. I’ve been working (and learning how to write) on this series for over four years now, and I simply want to take a short break to explore something new before returning to it. And Forward already has its first arc fully written (approximately 53,000 words), so aside from minor revisions and preparation for weekly uploads, the second and final arc is currently being written. If you’d like to stay updated, be sure to follow me! I’ll occasionally share updates and maybe even a sneak peek of Dead Era along the way. — Dustin Refer to Update Schedule for more infomation, or PM with any questions. ⏰ Update Schedule (Updated 7/8/2026) Schedule: Updates every Monday at 8 PM Central / 9 PM Eastern. Uploads from July 6 to August 17 are uncertain due to school and moving. (See “Planned Volumes” for more details.) If there’s ever a delay (life, holidays, etc.), I’ll note it in the pre or post-chapter author’s note (even if I can't upload the day before, so check latest chapter for any updated notes) so you’ll always be in the loop.  Disclaimer: I’d like all feedback, reviews, and ratings for this story to be entirely organic. I’m committed to growing it naturally through real readers, even if that means slower progress. Thank you for understanding — please, no review swaps. Thanks for reading! — Dustin
