Publisher's Summary

The eighth book in the Empire sequence takes Centurion Marcus Aquila and his Tungrian legion on a dangerous mission to the heart of the Parthian empire.

With Rome no longer safe, Marcus and the Tungrians are ordered east, to the desolate borderlands where Rome and Parthia have vied for supremacy for centuries.

Ordered to relieve the siege of an isolated fortress, their task is doomed to bloody failure unless they can turn the disaffected Third Legion into a fighting force capable of resisting the terrifying Parthian cataphracts.

And Marcus must travel to the enemy capital, Ctesiphon, on a desperate mission, the only man who can persuade the King of Kings to halt a war that threatens the humiliation of the empire and the slaughter of his friends.

Action to make your head spin

It's easy to get lost in these adventures, the action, edge of your seat near disasters, the strategy, the personalities and the relationships. This thrown together band of brothers fight again for their lives, honour and the empire. It's bittersweet though when some of the characters you get to love become casualties, but it wouldn't have that sense of real life what could have been and credibility. I applaud the authors hard work and craftsmanship as well as Saul's narration which carries all the excitement and anticipation so effectively. I have to listen to this again before moving on to the next in the series.
