About this listen
Centurion, a no. 1 best-seller, is the unputdownable eighth novel in Simon Scarrow's Eagle's of the Empire series. Perfect for fans of Bernard Cornwell and Conn Iggulden.
In the first century AD the Roman Empire faces a new threat from its long-standing enemy Parthia. Parthia is vying with Rome for control of Palmyra, an officially neutral kingdom. Palmyra's royal household is on the brink of open revolt, and so a task force under the command of experienced soldiers Macro and Cato is dispatched to defend its king and guard its borders. When Parthia hears of the Roman army's presence, it starts amassing its troops for war.
Macro's cohort must march against the enemy, deep into treacherous territory. If Palmyra is not to fall into the clutches of Parthia, they will have to defeat superior numbers in a desperate siege. The quest for a lasting peace has never been more challenging, nor more critical for the future of the Empire.

scarrow brings military rome to life.
Although there are some levels of predictability, our heroes escaping overwhelming odds. The villains this time Longinus rarely get their cummupence,& now Narcissus has more plans. However unlike Pressfield ( particularly Tides of War) he doesn't saturate one with political ideologies. Gemmells trilogy on Troy you'd love if you like this and Colleen McCullough first 5 of 7 are a must for historical fiction lovers.is it possible as Vespasian gains the purple ( fact not spoiler) that Cato could ride the curses honourum to Senator and legate even general. Macro to first amount Centurions.
