## Description

'Impressive to an astounding extent' ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Reader review 'Impossible to put down' ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Reader review 'A fascinating story: authentic, action-packed and full of humour' ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Reader review 'The bone crunching, blood letting and all our fury of ancient warfare is brought vividly to life' ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Reader review 'Totally enthralling' ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Reader review 'A damn fine read' Ben Kane THE ROMAN ARMY HAS VANQUISHED THE REBEL TRIBES' ALLIANCE IN NORTH BRITANNIA. THE SURVIVORS LIE IN WAIT, PLOTTING REVENGE . . . But the new Roman leader will not let them rest. He forms an audacious plan to capture the Selgovaes' fortress of spears, and return it to the hands of a trusted ally. Marcus Aquila - burning for revenge on an enemy army that slaughtered one of his best friends - is part of the select group of infantry chosen to go north and take the fort before the rebel army can reach it. But he is just a few days ahead of two of the emperor's agents, sent from Rome to kill him. Pitiless assassins who will stop at nothing to silence him, one and for all. A pulse-pounding adventure from one of the biggest names in historical adventure fiction, to delight fans of Bernard Cornwell, Simon Scarrow and Conn Iggulden.
