Summary
The Roman grip on Britain is weakening. Emperor Nero has turned his face away from this far-flung outpost. The Druids are on the rise, spreading seeds of rebellion among the British tribes. Roman cruelty and exploitation has angered their British subjects. The warrior queen Boudicca will lead the tribes to war.
Standing against the rising tide of Boudicca's rebellion is Roman Tribune, Gaius Valerius Verrens, Commander of the veteran legions at Colonia. Valerius leads the veterans in a last stand against the unstoppable horde of Boudicca's rebel army. Step by step, the bloodied survivors are forced back into the Temple of Claudius. It is here that Valerius wins lifelong fame and the accolade Hero of Rome.

Good story, good presentation. As someone else has said, some scenes are difficult but many human elements and emotions are automatically recognisable within the story. Well worth the effort of time.

First class novel, well worth listening to.
Well researched and written story, a real "page turner". My appetite has been whetted for more of this series and I have recently bought book II. The narrator was clear and expressive, the only negative point was his portrayal of the odious character Crespo which for some reason he gave a west midlands accent to despite the character hailing from Sicily which I found very odd and rather irritating. However, that being said, his narration style kept the excitement of the action going throughout the book. Would recommend.
