Publisher's Summary
If you don't know Simon Scarrow, you don't know Rome!
The Eagle's Prophecy is the powerful sixth novel in Simon Scarrow's best-selling Eagles of the Empire series. Perfect for fans of Bernard Cornwell.
The Adriatic Sea, AD 45. Cato and Macro, centurions of the Roman army, are horrified to learn that they face possible execution after the death of their commanding officer. Fortunately, the Emperor's secretary is willing to offer them an alternative: to join the marines and hunt down a band of brutal pirates who are decimating not only Rome's reputation, but also a critical supply chain.
As they discover the true horror of battle at sea, Macro and Cato must also remember their real mission: to recover from those pirates a set of scrolls that hold secrets vital to the future of the Roman Empire. Rome will do anything to get them back....

Great story - pity about the narrator
The change of narrator has significantly lowered my enjoyment of the series. Great story by Scarrow as always but this will be my last.

With a nod to Falco...
...fans of Lindsay Davis’ Roman private eye will note to sly reference to Fountain Court and the infant Marcus.
A tale of adventure on the high seas - with plotting and intrigue worthy of any Royal dynasty.

Good Listen
Vespasian = "Im Batman!"
I enjoyed the performance and the story is entertaining but the voice for Vespasian didn't fit the character

About the narrator
I’ve seen many reviews on here bagging out the narrator. I think he’s fantastic. More please.

Lovin' it
Brilliant narration though the previous books were read by a different narrator so the differences in some pronunciations, especially names was a frustration ...you just have to let it go I learned. Once I relaxed into it I was home with the two main characters again and their adventure. I like how these books leave you eager for the next chapter.

IMHO Scarrows best yet.
Simply put, outstanding!
For lovers of ancient history, detailed knowledge of the times, unrivalled battlefield and marine action scenes and a warmth and pathos developed in characters, ......hard to beat!
Scarrow has taken historical fiction by the throat and gone for the jugular. Loved it.
