About this title

About the Author

Codex Regius is a pseudonym and label of a pair of two authors from Slove­nia and Germany, respectively. They are also using the label ‘Romanike’ for their series of historical novels set in the Roman Empire. One author is a university engineer of chemistry and, before both set up a freelance trans­lation business, has spent her time trying to convey the wonders of the Peri­odic Table to mostly unreceptive students. The other is a graduate of phys­ical engineering and former technical editor. Both are working from home, which the children find very convenient when they come from school. The two authors of Codex Regius are married to each other and still trying to find a common language.
