THE EPIC NEW EAGLES OF THE EMPIRE NOVEL FROM BESTSELLING AUTHOR SIMON SCARROW - THE PERFECT BOOK FOR THE SEASON OF ROME!

ROME AND BOUDICA. A DUEL TO THE DEATH.

AD 61. Britannia is divided.

The rebel horde has been defeated. But the leader, Boudica, and her remaining warriors are still at large. With them is the eagle standard of the Ninth Legion, taken in ambush, flaunted as proof that Rome can yet be beaten.

The embers of rebellion are still glowing . . .

The toll has been heavy, with countless men lost, and major towns in ruins. The bodies of the dead are strewn across the streets. And for Centurion Macro, there is the scarring knowledge that his mother perished in the attack on Londinium.

As Macro's heart burns for revenge, he and his comrade-in-arms Prefect Cato are tasked with hunting down the remnants of the enemy army. There can be no peace until the queen is captured or killed. And Roman honour will only be restored when the eagle standard has been recovered.

What happened to Boudicca

I love the characters voice inflections, not a monotone dialogue and the history of Roman Britain. Characters that pull you in. Great series by Simon Scarrow and Jonathan Keeble does a fantastic job.

dual storyline

The maturing and aging of the characters and of corse the setting development. The combination of a historical event and characters that resonate with the time and action.

Solid end to this plot line—more of an epilogue to the prior Boudicca-centered books

I look forward for the new Cato & Macro volume every year, and this about met my expectations. Ties up the Boudicca Rebellion quite well, though it was always doomed to be a let down after last year’s book. Narration was very good. Lastly, this could have used a historical note at the end. It needn’t have been exhaustive, but some sort of grounding in history (or the author’s interpretation of it) would have been welcome.

Another great Eagles of the Empire book!

Another brilliant performance by Jonathan Keeble. I always look forward to his narration. I’ve enjoyed all 23 books of the series and am always anxious for the next one. Even though Cato deserves a rest after the Boudicca revolt I have a feeling him and Macro will be drawn into yet another empire drama.

Awesome

I have listened to every book in the series! I can’t tell you enough how captivating these stories are. Jonathan does an excellent job narrating and the book flows smoothly! I can’t wait until the next! Great works gentlemen!

Great writing , interesting characters, excellent narration.

I have read or listened to all of the " Eagles of the Empire" books and thoroughly enjoyed them all. Simon Scarrow is a talented story teller .

Story and narrator.

I hope the stories will continue and that this is not the last of the series.

Prefect Cato does it again!

By the gods I declare that these books are fit for an emperor! I truly enjoy all of the eagles of the empire titles and this is another great one. Just like the governor at the end I too hope Cato is ready for when the empire needs him again!

A fun ride all the way to the end

I couldn’t get enough of the story and finished the whole thing in less than a week! I can’t wait for the next one to come out.

another great addition

another hit from Simon Scarrow. a great story expertly narrated by the master; Johnathan Keeble.
