Product Description

Review

'Everyone has been raving about the film GLADIATOR, but Cato's story is its equal in bloody cut and thrust and has the bonus of conspiracy and intrigue to give it extra flavour' -- Northern Echo 'I don't need this sort of competition' -- Bernard Cornwell


Product Description

It is 42 AD, and Quintus Licinius Cato has just arrived in Germany as a new recruit to the Second Legion, the toughest in the Roman army. If adjusting to the rigours of military life isn't difficult enough for the bookish young man, he also has to contend with the disgust of his colleagues when, because of his imperial connections, he is appointed a rank above them. As second-in-command to Macro, the fearless, battle-scarred centurion who leads them, Cato will have more to prove than most in the adventures that lie ahead. Then the men discover that the army's next campaign will take them to a land of unparalleled barbarity - Britain. After the long march west, Cato and Macro undertake a special mission that will thrust them headlong into a conspiracy that threatens to topple the Emperor himself...

5.0 out of 5 stars Wow!, Feb 13 2006
By Ignite (Toronto, Ontario) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Under The Eagle (Paperback)
As an avid historical fiction fan, I am always looking for new authors to check out. I checked this one out mainly due to the praise that Bernard Cornwell heaped on it, and I was not dissapointed. In a nutshell, this is the start of a series, centering around the characters Macro and Cato. Loads of action, little doses of humour, and well developed characters (for this type of fiction) abound. Reads very much like one of Bernard Cornwell's Sharpe novels, set in Roman times. Highly reccomended, I have since ordered all of the sequels.

4.0 out of 5 stars Great first title, Feb 25 2009
By C. Lam "Rantanrave" (Toronto) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Under The Eagle (Paperback)
A great first read. The characters leap off the page and the action makes you see the blood, sweat and triumph of Rome's legions.
I found the plot good for a first title and though some of the story seems a little contrived occasionally, I thought it a good start for a new series.
Looking forward to more in the next book, The Eagle's Conquest.
