Publisher's Summary
A stunning novel of courage, camaraderie and deadly enemies from the Sunday Times best-selling author of Centurion and The Emperor's Exile.
AD 58. Britannia. Tension is simmering. Danger lies round every corner for Rome's brave soldiers....
Fifteen years after Rome's invasion of Britannia, centurion Marco is back. The island is settled now, bustling with commerce. Macro's goal is to help run his mother's Londinium Inn, and exploit his land grant. He's prepared for the dismal weather and the barbaric ways of the people. But far worse dangers threaten all his plans.
A gang led by an ex-legionary rules the city, demanding protection money and terrorising those who won't pay up. The Roman official in charge has turned a blind eye. Macro has to act. He needs the back-up of the finest soldier he knows: Prefect Cato. But Cato is in distant Rome. Or is he?
As the streets run red with blood, the army's heroes face an enemy as merciless and cunning as any barbarian tribe. The honour of Rome is in their hands....
For listeners of Bernard Cornwell, Conn Iggulden and Ben Kane - unstoppable fiction from an author who knows the Roman world like no other.
If you don't know Simon Scarrow, you don't know Rome.

Fun, enjoyable adventure focused on Macro
Fun setting.
Macro focused story is a nice change.
If you’ve been following their journey, you’ll be familiar with the style and enjoy it.

Colourful characters and sticky predicaments around the corners.
While quite predictable in the premise.
The story was fun and I enjoyed the change of pace.

I wouldn’t want to come up against Cato or Macro in a dark alley. Great story, loved it.

Rollicking story.
He’s deformity back to his best. And the narrator was magnificent as usual.

Scarrow strikes again
Interesting to have the majority of the book dedicated to Macro, much like the previous one had been directed at Cato. However, great to have them together again

Ripping yarn, Macro's profanity not monstrous
Back to Britannica, excellent swashbuckling novel with a twisting turning plot that sets us up for more vanquishing of the maniacal Britons.

Action, action, action!
Excellent story line, with first rate narration bringing the characters to life. Cannot wait for the next adventure in the series.

Absolutely terrible
I will never buy another Simon Scarrow audio book. The language was foul, the plot was worse than second rate and the narration has deteriorated especially in relation to Centurion Macro. This used to be a great series of books but has passed its used by date. There are much better historical novels on the market. Be warned!
