Publisher's Summary
NAPOLEON: EMPEROR OF FRANCE, MASTER OF EUROPE.
1812. On the eve of the invasion of Russia, half-French, half-English Matthieu Carrey finds himself in the ranks of Napoleon's five hundred thousand strong army. With Tsar Alexander seemingly ill-prepared, a French victory seems certain. The Grande Armée will obliterate everything in its path.
Carrey's purpose is less clear. Blackmailed into becoming a spy in the emperor's army, he hopes to follow his lover, a French actress who has gone to work in the Moscow theatre.
As supplies grow scarce and temperatures plummet, the Grande Armée begins to crumble. Caught up in the maelstrom of war, Carrey embarks on an epic journey, while the Russians circle him like hungry wolves.
Hundreds of miles lie between Carrey and safety.
To reach it seems utterly impossible.
PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

An epic story of the failures of one Man
What a great story a move away from the Roman period which I love. A true epic story of the vanity of and the pursuit of of power. And the scale of death and destruction a wonderfully told story. Can't wait for the second book

Another excellent Ben Kane book
An excellent story, well written. Unfortunately, the narration was, to my ear, harsh and monotonous, which detracted a little from the enjoyment and did little to bring the story to life. Don’t let this put you off, though!
