"Avis Aurea" deals with heavy topics, and has a master/slave relationship at the centre of the story. The book depicts Ancient Rome in its raw nature, and the dynamics governing that society where slavery was the norm and part of everyday life.
Roman citizens considered adulthood to start between 12 and 14 years of age for girls and boys, and girls could be married off at 12. This was the accepted norm during those times. The MCs are both over 18 when the story starts. Characters have been aged up in the book to suit our modern times in a European setting. This also includes the coming-of-age ceremony for young man which typically took place around age 14 to 15 for boys. In the book, it is assumed that this takes place at age 18.
Please only read further if you are comfortable with a story that is not sugar-coated, and where facts have not been altered.
"Avis Aurea" is not historically accurate fiction. It takes plays under a fictitious emperor, and the era is loosely based on Ancient Rome under Trajan's reign. It is a queer erotic romance first, set in a historical setting. Whereas a tremendous amount of research went into this book, it is a work of fiction, and might not be completely accurate in some instances. Military rankings and hierarchy have been adapted to suit the story.
The book has explicit sex scenes.
