Product Description

Set in Roman Britain, this novel tells the story of two Roman soldiers who discover a plot to overthrow the Emperor. They find themselves leading a band of loyalists into the thick of battle in defence of the honour of Rome.


Ingram

More than a century after The Eagle of the Ninth leaves off, two cousins join the Roman side in the fight against a tyrannical British emperor. Sutcliff writes as though Roman Britain were as real and as close to her as England of today. This text refers to an alternate Paperback edition.

1.0étoiles sur 5 I Never Knew What Was Going On!!!, Jui 8 2004
Par Un client
This review is from: Silver Branch The (Paperback)
When I read this book, from the beginning I had no idea what was going on and I still didn't at the end. I knew random parts but I did not know why they were in a war in the first place.
This is the worst book I have ever read!

4.0étoiles sur 5 The Silver Branch, Jui 8 2001
Par Un client
This review is from: Silver Branch The (Paperback)
Want a riveting historical-fiction novel with a plot that is better than most? If so, the Silver Branch is a book for you. Set in Roman Britan, over a century after the first book in the series, The Eagle of the Ninth, the book paints a picture of the life of two Romans, who seek to overthrow a tyrannical emperor who has separated himself, and Britan, from Rome. Rosemary Sutcliff has indeed woven a story whose plot is exceedingly diverse and well thought-out. The book gives the reader a gripping plot in which the reader is given a picture of the Roman world. The book paints a vivid picture of a Roman town, Legion, a gladiator fight, and the Roman's enemies the Saxon barbarians. Rosemary Sutcliff has the gift of being able to write very good historical novels.

5.0étoiles sur 5 Nobody can beat Rosemary Sutcliff, Fév 5 2000
Par Un client
This review is from: Silver Branch The (Paperback)
I found this book to be fantastic. I love the time and setting, but it was much more than that. The characters are all so real and alive, the historical events are so accuratly portrayed, and, most of all, the writing is excellent. Rosemary Sutcliff has fast become one of my very favorite authors, and I would definately reccommend this book to almost anyone, especially if you have any interest in the Roman Empire or Britian/early British history. (I only might not reccommend this to some kids, because the writing isn't always so easy, and they might get bogged down or confused)

This is the second in a loosely linked trilogy (the 1st and 3rd books are 'Eagle of the Ninth' and 'The Lantern Bearers'), and is arguably the best of the three. Read more
