I read this book series about 8 years ago now; it was kinda your usual young adult fare, as far as I can remember. I think there were two teens (maybe more?) that somehow became a part of this time travel agency and they had to go back in time to keep things on track.
The thing I remember most was them encountering a Roman soldier, who wasn't the backward denizen of the past they expected, but just a generally very smart and competent person who got the hang of modern tech very quickly. Sorry, it's not much to go on. Thanks.
