About this listen

If you don't know Simon Scarrow, you don't know Rome!

The Eagle and the Wolves is the gripping fourth novel in Simon Scarrow's best-selling Eagles of the Empire series. Perfect for fans of Bernard Cornwell and Conn Iggulden.

Britannia, AD 44. Occupation is never easy. The enemy is butchering their supply convoys, their garrison town is starving and the truce with the locals is uneasy at best. Young Cato, newly promoted, and veteran centurion Macro are ordered to train the Wolves and the Boars, two cohorts of barbarian Britons, and introduce them to the brutal drills of the Roman Imperial Army. Macro is confident they'll win the natives over, but Cato worries about putting weapons into the hands of potential rebels. Ultimately, only one thing matters: is there a difference between the enemy at their gates, and the allies in their own camp?

Another great book with our dynamic duo. Treacherous dealings with royalty! Murder!
I cannot sing the praise of Jonathan Keele more, the man is a true genius. The same goes for the author. On to the next book.

a fan of the previous books will not be disappointed here. The continued character growth and political scheming in face of the required soldiering provide plenty of intrigue along side great paced action.

another great story following Cato and Macro.
