Britannia

IF YOU DON'T KNOW SIMON SCARROW, YOU DON'T KNOW ROME!. Shortlisted for the Wilbur Smith Adventure Writing Prize. Simon Scarrow's veteran Roman soldier heroes face a cunning and relentless enemy in BRITANNIA, the unforgettable fourteenth novel in the bestselling Eagles of the Empire series. But can they match the discipline and courage of the legionaries?. Wounded Centurion Macro remains behind in charge of the fort as Prefect Cato leads an invasion deep into the hills. But with winter drawing in, the terrain is barely passable through icy rain and snowstorms.

When Macro's patrols report that the natives in the vicinity of the garrison are thinning out, a terrible suspicion takes shape in the battlescarred soldier's mind. Has the acting Governor, Legate Quintatus, underestimated the enemy? If there is a sophisticated and deadly plan afoot, it's Cato and his men who will pay the price.
