Under the Eagle
Under the Eagle
Simon Scarrow's first novel is impressive, and quite simply, as one Amazon.co.uk reviewer puts it, a rollocking read. Under the Eagle tells the story of the young Optio, Cato, who is thrust from the Imperial Court into the abrasive care of the experienced Centurion Macro. Scarrow's handling of military life is excellent, full of humour and action, and the dialogue is simply first class, full of soldierly obersvation and jaded wit. The book is "un-putdown-able," and comes highly recommended. Amazon.co.uk Amazon.com Amazon.de
The Eagle's Conquest
The Eagle's Conquest
Macro and Cato find themselves embarking on the invasion of Brittania under the command of the Legate, Vespasian. Action and comedy ensue as the desperately outnumbered Roman's pit their disciplined army against the barbaric courage of the Britons. But there are enemies with the Roman camp as well as without...Scarrow's sequel is as good, if not better than his first offering. The author is obviously an expert on the Roman military, but this learning experience for the reader is handled with great subtlety. Simply brilliant stuff. Amazon.co.uk Amazon.com Amazon.de
Whe The Eagle Hunts

After victory at Camulodunum (Colchester, Essex), theRoman military machine rolls on. But disaster falls upon the family of a Roman commander, Platius, as his wife and children are taken captive by the dark, secretive sect of Druids. It falls to Macro and Cato to unravel the mystery.

The Eagle and the Wolves

Macro and Cato's latest adventure is yet to be published, but if the others are anything to go on, this is sure to provide the same entertainment as the first three books. It can be pre-ordered from Amazon.co,uk. The Eagle and the Wolves is not yet available in the US, but I would urge US readers not to wait, and order this title from Amazon in the UK. Amazon.co.uk   Amazon.de
The Imperial Governor
The Imperial Governor
The tale of Governor Suetonius Paulinus and his attempt to pacify the fractious tribes of Briton after the successful invasion of Claudius. An interesting book in many ways, The Imperial Governor takes a little known historical figure and places him in the heart of the action. The author, George Shipway, is plainly a master of characterisation, portaying Paulinius at once sympathetic to the plight of the natives, yet at the same time, as man who gets the job done. Rich with action, there is also a good deal of political intrigue, and fascinating insights as to what it must have been like for the "real" Paulinus as he struggles to rule whilst being a stranger in a strange land. Amazon.co.uk Amazon.com Amazon.de

With barbarian's overunning the last bastions of Roman civilisation, it falls to a brave band of Legionaries to save the son of the murdered Emperor, and spirit him to far-off Britannia where a force can be rallied to rebuild the Empire...Mandfredi is not so constrained by historical accuacy as he was in the Alexander series, and presents us with a far more straight forward adventure story.
