If you don't know Simon Scarrow, you don't know Rome!

The Eagle in the Sand is the action-packed seventh novel in Simon Scarrow's best-selling Eagles of the Empire series. Essential reading for fans of Bernard Cornwell.

Judaea in AD 46. Roman centurions Cato and Macro have been posted to Judaea for a 'hearts and minds' operation. The Empire needs to win over the locals after some of their religious figures have started revolts - and since the Romans crucified the last charismatic Judaean leader, the natives' rebellions have become bolder.

Not only are these small villages causing trouble, but there are also thousands of Parthians eager to fight Rome. With the threat of suicide attacks and even all-out war, Cato and Macro have their peace-keeping work cut out....

Loved the book. Narrator does great job of differentiating voices. Am rooting for Macro to find love. Love roman history

Narration too low compared with rest of speaking. The speaker needs to adjust the levels of the performance. Hard to listen in a car.

I want more Simon Scarrow! Stop messing about with the abridged versions and make available the unabridged!

MORE!

The only complaint I have is that I am not sure of the Jesus or “j’hashua” mentioned in the backstory is meant to be the actual Jesus, or one of the off-shoot messianic figures that cropped up in history. The reason it confuses me is if it’s really meant to be Jesus, then Scarrow needs to read the Bible again. The things he claims that Jesus taught is way off the mark, such as that his whole purpose was to liberate Israel from the Romans. That is what the Jews THOUGHT He was supposed to do, they didn’t see that what He was doing was so much bigger than Rome vs Israel. Anyway, small complaint, the story is still STELLAR and the performance is outstanding. Well worth listening

Confused over a small part of the backstory

Swords, daggers, combat, good guys, bad guys, biblical references, what's not to like? Moves the action to the desert.

Action aplenty.

What did you love best about The Eagle in the Sand?

So glad this was not abridged. The friendship between the two centurians welds this story together and provides a good adventure. Although the author does not delve into Roman camp life as much as I would like, the story is still cohesive and the characters believable. All together a good story and fine narrator. I'd like to see more non-abridged works by Simon Scarrow.

Excellent read all around. Its difficult to find an author with the love of historical accuracy and detail, while being imaginative enough to spin a good yarn.

Well done
